Abstract

The mechanical and electrical properties of crystals produced by a unidirectional process depend strongly on the temperature and flow field in the melt since these control the concentration of solute at the melt-crystal interface. The solute gradient there drives morphological instabilities that lead to cellular or dendritic interfaces. This paper discusses the planar-cellular transition and the description of cellular phenomena in theoretical terms.
