Crystal Growth in Liquid-Encapsulated Float Zone

Suitably chosen liquid encapsulant placed around melt zone in float-zone crystal-growth system performs four important functions enhancing purity and reducing strains and dislocations in final crystal. In new technique, grow dislocation-free crystals with precisely controlled composition even from materials not amenable to conventional float-zone crystal-growth method. Support provided by encapsulant make it practical to process materials of low surface tension.

Concave-convex growth spirals.

The simple model for introduction of a screw dislocation into a crystal leaves a step in those surfaces of the crystal that intersect the axis of the screw dislocation such that the Burgers vector has a finite component perpendicular to the surfaces. When two parallel surfaces of a crystal intersect the same screw dislocation, the resultant step, on opposite sides of the crystal, face in opposite directions. Consequently, when two such surfaces grow by accretion of the molecules at the steps, the steps wind themselves into spirals that appear to have opposite senses of rotation when viewed along the axis of the screw dislocation. Furthermore, the growth structure that results is a plano convex cone or pyramid centered on the screw dislocation. When growth occurs simultaneously on both sides of a crystal, a doubly convex structure will develop under the control of a singe screw dislocation.
