Spin-polarized electron photoemission has been investigated for strained III--V compounds; (1) strained In{sub x}Ga{sub 1-x}As epitaxially grown on a GaAs substrate, and (2) strained GaAs grown on a GaAs{sub 1-x}P{sub x} buffer layer. The lattice mismatched heterostructure results in a highly strained epitaxial layer, and electron spin polarization as high as 90% has been observed.
