Abstract
The effects of strain-temperature stress on the interfacial characteristics of ultrathin SiO2 films on Si substrates were investigated in this brief. Both tensile and compressive strains were respectively applied on films at evaporated temperature. Quality improvement could be observed in the tensile one but degradation in another
