Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="crat201500021-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>This paper is an investigation on the EFG process working point. The objective is to find the relationship between the heating power and pulling rate for a given rod diameter. A simple and handy algebraic model is established taking into account heat balance at the interface, head losses in the melt and meniscus surface energy. From a given die and capillary channel geometry, links between growth parameters and crystal dimension are highlighted. <graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgjrk4ctxs" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></p> </abstract>
