Highly strained GaAs layers have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on (100)-, (111)- or (112)-oriented Si or CaF2 substrates. The origin, sign, bisotropic nature, value, homogeneity and relaxation of the built-in strain have been studied by Raman spectroscopy. Specific measurements have been performed by using selection rules and line shape analysis over a wide temperature range.
