AbstractIt is necessary to clarify the effect of Marangoni convection on single crystal growth from a melt in order to improve the quality of the grown crystal. Particularly, the deviation of crystalmelt (C-M) interface from a planar shape is a major problem because it may deteriorate the quality of the grown crystal. In this paper, we investigated the effect of thermal and solutal Marangoni convection on C-M interface shape in an In-Sb binary system by the horizontal Bridgman (HB) method. The C-M interface concavity strongly depends on the cooling rate and the temperature gradient under uniform concentration distribution conditions in the melt. A large concavity was observed at low cooling rates and high temperature gradient conditions. The concavity was found to be caused by thermal Marangoni convection, by taking Péclet number into account. Then, we varied the composition of the In-Sb binary system to induce solutal Marangoni convection intentionally. The C-M interface was kept planar in case solutal Marangoni convection occurred in the direction opposite to the thermal one. Therefore, we believe that the utilization of solutal Marangoni convection will be a new control technique to make the C-M interface planar for the HB system. From these results, it was clarified that Marangoni convection plays a significant role in the HB crystal growth system.

Abstract Tris(dimethylamino)borane, X-ray The crystal and molecular structure of tris(dimethylamino)borane, a liquid at room temperature, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods at - 116°C. The single-crystal growth was accomplished by means of a miniature zone melting process on the diffractometer. The structure data are compared with those of other aminoboranes.
