摘要
We performed 3D numerical and experimental studies to assess the potential of peripheral low frequency mechanical vibrations for improving the homogeneity of Sb-doped 4 '' Ge crystals grown by vertical gradient freeze (VGF). For this study, a novel bell-shaped graphite vibrator was developed for the generation of the axial vibrations in the direction of three-phase junction. Melt stirring by downward traveling magnetic field (TMF) was used as a benchmark. The results showed superiority of peripheral vibrations to TMF stirring concerning radial and longitudinal doping distribution and initial stirring rate. Experimentally observed standing free surface waves in Ge were caused by shielding effect of the vibrator on TMF. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
