No, SiGe on insulator is different from the compound semiconductor SiGe

...Also SiGe has applications to strained silicon in (very) modern CMOS, independent of SOI. (Karlleeser 07:30, 30 January 2006 (UTC))

Elemental/compound names should be spelled out in headers/titles so that they can be grabbed properly for links elsewhere (Karlleeser 07:32, 30 January 2006 (UTC))

Yeah, this merge suggestion didn't make much sense. If anything, SiGeOI would be merged into SiGe, though I'm not advocating that. I pulled the banner, hope no one minds too much. --Jschultz 03:17, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bernard Meyerson

Mention should be made of IBM's Bernard Meyerson who in many respects made SiGe what it is today.

BTW I consider SiGe to be an alloy not a compound semiconductor.
