We prove that if $L$ is a finite simple group of Lie type and $A$ a
symmetric set of generators of $L$, then $A$ grows i.e $|AAA| >
|A|^{1+\e}$
where $\e$ depends only on the Lie rank of $L$, or $AAA=L$. This
implies that for a family of simple groups $L$ of Lie type
of bounded rank the
diameter of any Cayley graph is polylogarithmic in $|L|$.
Combining our result on growth with known results of Bourgain,
Gamburd and Varj\'u it follows that if $\Lambda$ is a Zariski-dense
subgroup of $SL(d,\BZ)$ generated by a finite symmetric set $S$, then
for square-free moduli $m$,
which are relatively prime to some number $m_0$,
the Cayley graphs $\Gamma(SL(d,\BZ/m\BZ),\pi_m(S))$ form an expander
family.
