The shape of the crystal/melt interface during Czochralski crystal growth strongly influences
the crystal quality. In this paper, a novel method for real-time detection of the varied interface …

Herein, influence of coil geometry in a Czochralski crystal growth system is studied using 3D
finite element method. Three different geometries for the helical RF‐coil including solenoid …

A set of two-dimensional numerical simulations of the Czochralski growth of germanium
crystals were performed in order to study the effect of the crystal pulling rate and …

A numerical scheme was developed to compute the thermal and stress fields of the
Czochralski process in a quasi-time dependent mode. The growth velocity was computed …

In this paper, a set of numerical simulations of fluid flow, temperature gradient, thermal stress
and dislocation density for a Czochralski setup used to grow IR optical-grade Ge single …

Inhomogeneity and striations stemming from growth interface fluctuation impair the
performance of bulk single crystals. Although an enormous number of theoretical and …

In this paper, a magnetic flux concentrator (MFC) is reported, and its geometry effect on the
induction heating process has been calculated in a Czochralski crystal growth system using …

Traveling magnetic field (TMF) is a potential method to control the melt flow and impurity
transport during the directional solidification (DS) of silicon ingots. We numerically study the …

By changing the vertical relative position of the crucible against the induction coil, the flow
and thermal fields in the melt are seriously affected. The distribution of heat generation …

In this article, a set of two-dimensional computer simulations were performed to investigate
the required minimum thickness of a steel chamber wall used for an inductive Czochralski …
