摘要
The phase-field crystal (PFC) model is used to simulate crystal growth from undercooled liquid by the finite difference method. The effects of phase region and undercooling on crystal growth process are analyzed. The simulation results show that crystal growth is inhibited in the region of liquid-crystal coexistence where liquid-crystal boundary becomes thicker gradually. In the single crystal phase region, crystallization is enhanced with undercooling increasing, while liquid-crystal boundary becomes thinner. It is found that there is a linear relationship between crystal growth velocity and undercooling.
