Large-Scale Numerical Modeling of Bulk Crystal Growth from the Melt and Solution

  • Chapter
Science and Technology of Crystal Growth

Abstract

Crystal growth is an art which is evolving into a science, and large-scale numerical simulation represents a modern tool for speeding this evolution onward. The use of realistic theoretical models can augment traditional experimental inquiry for obtaining fundamental understanding of crystal growth. In addition, modeling promises to provide a rational mechanism for systematic process optimization and design. Effective large-scale numerical simulation requires a thorough understanding of the underlying process physics, modeling approaches, mathematics, numerical methods, algorithms, and implementations. The reader will be spared of most of the intimate details in the ensuing manuscript; however, a short discussion of the current state of the art is appropriate.
