Kinetic coefficient for hard-sphere crystal growth from the melt.
Using molecular-dynamics simulation, we determine the magnitude and anisotropy of the kinetic coefficient (mu) for the crystal growth from the melt for the hard-sphere system through an analysis of equilibrium capillary fluctuations in interfacial height. We find mu100 = 1.44(7), mu110 = 1.10(5), and mu111 = 0.64(3) in units of square root (kB/(mTm)), where kB is Boltzmann's constant, m is the ...
متن کاملApparatus for single ice crystal growth from the melt.
A crystal growth apparatus was designed and built to study the effect of growth modifiers, antifreeze proteins and antifreeze glycoproteins (AFGPs), on ice crystal growth kinetics and morphology. We used a capillary growth technique to obtain a single ice crystal with well-defined crystallographic orientation grown in AFGP solution. The basal plane was readily observed by rotation of the capill...
متن کاملMagnetic Field Suppression of Melt Flow in Crystal Growth
A least-squares spectral finite element method was used to develop an accurate computer code for prediction of solidification from a melt under the influence of an externally applied magnetic field. The computational results indicate significantly different flow-field patterns and thermal fields in the melt and the accrued solid in the cases of full gravity, reduced gravity, and an applied unif...
متن کاملEFFECT OF SPIRAL DESIGN ON CRYSTAL ORIENTATION DURING SINGLE CRYSTAL GROWTH
Geometrical design of the spiral crystal selector can affect crystal orientation in the final single crystal structure. To achieve a better understanding of conditions associated with the onset of crystal orientation in a spiral crystal selector, temperature field was investigated using three-dimensional finite element method during the process. Different geometries of spiral crystal selec...
متن کاملFour Lectures on the Physics of Crystal Growth
Several aspects of the theory of epitaxial crystal growth from atomic or molecular beams are developed from the perspective of statistical physics. Lectures are devoted to the rate equation theory of two-dimensional nucleation and its limitations; the growth of multilayer wedding cakes in the presence of strong step edge barriers; the continuum theory of mound coarsening; and growth-induced ste...
