Vibrational Convection During the Growth of Crystals

  • Chapter
Growth of Crystals

Part of the book series: Growth of Crystals ((GROC,volume 19))

Abstract

The effect of vibrations on the growth of a crystal has been the subject of many investigations (for example, [1–18]. Experimental data have been obtained regarding the influence of vibrations on the nature of the growth and such parameters and properties of single crystals as the rate of nucleation and crystal growth [1–4], the shape of a freely growing crystal [3, 8], the incorporation of impurities into a crystal [10, 11, 19, 20], its local inhomogeneity [9], and the dislocation density in a crystal [16]. These effects are evident to various degrees over a wide range of intensities and frequencies. The influence on the growth of crystals of vibrations in the ultrasonic (from tens of kHz to several MHz) [1–3,18,19], acoustic (usually tens to hundreds of Hz) [4, 5, 8–11, 16, 17], and even subsonic ranges (from 0.5 to 5 Hz) [6, 7, 15] has been investigated. The displacement amplitudes are usually confined to several micrometers for ultrasound [18] and reach 10–25 mm in experiments on the influence of subsound [6, 7].
