Abstract
The influence of transient heat and mass transfer processes in the melt, crystal and crucible on melt–solid interface shape and solute segregation in Bridgman growth of CdZnTe is investigated numerically. The computations elucidate a crucial role that the radial temperature gradient, formed by an interaction of latent heat release and external heat flux near the interface, plays in the evolution of the interface shape. Analysis of melt motion shows that solutal buoyancy force reduces the intensity of thermally induced convection up to a very low level. As a result, solute distribution in the melt is characteristic of diffusive transport regime. At the advanced stages of the process, when the growth interface moves slowly, and concentration of ZnTe in the melt becomes nearly homogeneous, complete mixing model is suitable for the description of axial ZnTe distribution in the crystal.
期刊介绍：
Fluid Dynamics is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes theoretical, computational, and experimental research on aeromechanics, hydrodynamics, plasma dynamics, underground hydrodynamics, and biomechanics of continuous media. Special attention is given to new trends developing at the leading edge of science, such as theory and application of multi-phase flows, chemically reactive flows, liquid and gas flows in electromagnetic fields, new hydrodynamical methods of increasing oil output, new approaches to the description of turbulent flows, etc.
