Axial Vibration Control Technique for Crystal Growth from the Melt: Analysis of Vibrational Flows’ Behavior
Source abstract
Abstract
A problem of efficacy of crystal growth methods for crystallization from solutions or melt has been investigated. The axial vibrational control (AVC) technique was considered as a perspective method to manage both heat-mass transfer and chemical component composition of the melts in the case of crystallization of complex chemical compounds. Numerical modeling and the search for generalized dependencies made it possible to predict the AVC parameters that provide optimal heat and mass transfer modes for creating flat liquid-solid interfaces, as well as the component composition of dissociated melts of various chemical compounds—Ge, NaNO3, CdTe.
