Liao Ebin, The reference can be found in "Semiconductor Sensors" edited by S. M. Sze, Chapter 4, pp160-166 (1994). The coefficients in the <111> silicon surface are as follows, the numbers in parenthesis are coefficient index. And pi(L), and pi(T) are longitudinal and transverse coefficients respectively. pi(L)=1/3(pi(11)+2pi(12)+2pi(44)) pi(T)=1/3(pi(11)+2pi(12)-pi(44)) Also refer to the general calculation of the coefficients in any direction given in the text.
