30. This simple analysis ignores changes in the surface energy and elastic constants as a function of alloy composition. However, these changes are small, less than 13% over the entire range of x values investigated, while (formula presented) varies by more than a factor of 30, from 1080 Å for pure Ge to 35 Å for (formula presented)
