ABSTRACTSegregation and diffusion of impurities in amorphous Si during furnace and ion-beam-induced epitaxy will be discussed. The use of ion beams to enhance the crystal growth process has resulted in novel behavior for fast diffusers such as Au. Diffusion is enhanced in the temperature range 300–700 K with activation energies ∼0.3 eV. Segregation and trapping are analogous to behavior at liquid-solid interfaces

Abstract This study examines the effect of crucible conductivity in minimizing convection and solute segregation in a Bridgman crystal growth system. Crystal diameter to length ratios from 0.5 to 2.5 are considered. A quasi-steady state numerical method is used to model the directional solidification of gallium doped germanium. The coupled governing equations for the melt, solidified crystal, and the ampoule wall are solved subject to appropriate boundary and interface conditions to determine the velocity, temperature, and concentration distributions. Results are presented at reduced gravity and include the effects of reducing the dimensionless ampoule conductivity from 0.67 to 0.05.

Abstract Solute segregation/redistribution model for some eutectic alloys is presented. The differential equation for the solute micro-segregation during solidification accompanied by the back-diffusion is formulated. The solution to this equation results in the definitions of: solidification path, solid/liquid (s/l) interface path and redistribution path. An equation for the estimation of the amount of equilibrium and non-equilibrium precipitates is also delivered. It is proved that the current model is universal one. Thus, the model reduces perfectly, mathematically to both description of diffusion-less solidification and model of equilibrium solidification.
