Abstract Gallium arsenide crystal is usually grown from the melt by the horizontal Bridgman method. We constructed pseudo - steady - state model for crystal growth of GaAs which inclue melt, crystal and the free interface. Mathematical equations of the model were solved for flow, temperature, and concentration field in the melt and temperature field in the crystal. The location and shape of the interface were also solved simultaneously. In 2 - dimensional model, the shape of the interface is flat with adiabatic thermal boundary condition, but it becomes curved with completely conducting thermal boundary condition. In 3 - dimensional model, the interface is less curved than 2 - dimensional case and the flow intensity is similar to that of 2 - dimensional case. With the increase of flow intensity vertical segregation shows maximum value in both 2 - and 3 - D model. However, the maximum value occurs in lower flow intensity in 2 - D model because the interface is more curved for the same flow intensity.

The Conventional patterned vertical alignment (PVA) device shows a very high contrast ratio at normal direction and does not require rubbing process. However it has a disclination area in which the liquid crystal can be collision in the boundary domain region. In this paper, we studied PVA(Z-shape) device in which the liquid crystal can be tilted down in multiple directions stably because the surface pretilt angle is controlled by photopolymerization of the UV - curable reactive mesogen (RM) under a proper condition. Consequently, the device shows improved electro optical properties as compared to conventional PVA mode.

To study interface between crystals grown and molten state in the crusible. Pulling and rotating rate of the shaft were varied in LiF crystal growth by Czochralski method. Lower speed of the pulling and rotating rate increased the degree of convexity in solid-liquid interface and higher speed of the pulling and rotating rate decreased it. Optimum condition of LiF crystal growth obtained as pulling rate was 6.5cm/h when it rotated as 46rpm.

In this contribution, we attempted a theoretical analysis on the validity of the widely-accepted idea that rough and singular surfaces can coexist in a crystal at equilibrium. By manipulating the Cahn and Hoffman capillarity vector, the conclusion that a crystal at equilibrium should be composed either of singular surfaces or of rough ones was reached.

Many electronic applications require magnetic materials with high permeability and frequency properties. We improve the magnetic permeability of soft magnetic powder by controlling the shape magnetic anisotropy of the powders and through the preparation of amorphous nanoparticles. For this purpose, the effect of the shape magnetic anisotropy of amorphous Fe-B-P nanoparticles is observed through a magnetic field and the frequency characteristics and permeability of these amorphous nanoparticles are observed. These characteristics are investigated by analyzing the composition of particles, crystal structure, microstructure, magnetic properties, and permeability of particles. The composition, crystal structure, and microstructure of the particles are analyzed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry-, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and focused ion beam analysis. The saturation magnetization and permeability are measured using a vibrating sample magnetometer and an LCR meter, respectively. It is confirmed that the shape magnetic anisotropy of the particles influences the permeability. Finally, the permeability and frequency characteristics of the amorphous Fe-B-P nanoparticles are improved.

Measurement of supersaturation is important in crystallization processes, because it is one of key factors to control crystal size distribution and shape determining product quality. A monitoring system of the supersaturation using a quartz crystal sensor is applied to the supersaturation measurement. From the variation of resonant frequency, the beginning of the formation of salt crystal on the sensor surface is detected while the sensor is directly cooled down. The degree of supersaturation is computed from the solubility difference at the temperatures of the salt solution and the sensor. The performance of the propsed system of the supersaturation measurement is examined by applying the system to the crystallization of three different salt solutions. The experimental outcome compared with eye observation result and photographic analysis indicates that the proposed system is effective and useful to determine the supersaturation in the crystallization process. In addition, the microscopic monitoring of the initial stage crystallization is available with the sensor system.

Numerical simulations are carried out for the magnetic Czochralski single crystal growth system. It Is shown that a magnetic field significantly suppresses the convective flow and as the strength of magnetic field becomes to be stronger, the heat transfer in the melt is dominated by conduction rather than convection. By imposing a cusp magnetic field, the growth interface shape becomes convex toward the melt. When the axial magnetic field is imposed, there occurs an inversion of the interface shape with increase of the magnetic field strength. The oxygen concentration near the interface decreases with increasing cusp magnetic field strength while axial field causes an increase of an oxygen concentration at the central region and decrease of that at the edge of the crystal. The results show that the cusp magnetic field has advantages over an axial magnetic field In the radial uniformity of oxygen as well as in the additional degree of control.

Dust-collecting behavior of tonpilz transducer was simulated with finite-element-method (FEM) software. In order to optimize the performance of tonpilz transducer, the shape factors including the thickness of head mass, the diameter of tail mass and the depth of bolt were analyzed as variables. As a vibrating energy source, the piezoelectric materials was also tested with PZT-4 and two kinds of piezoelectric single crystals. The output power of the transducer was maximized with the shape factors and then the behavior of the dust-collection was demonstrated with the multi-physics software, COMSOL.

The polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal (BPLC) cell has advantages such as sub-millisecond response time, wide viewing angle and no rubbing process for the alignment of liquid crystals. However, high operating voltage and low kerr constant of the polymer-stabilized blue phase liquid crystal deteriorate the electro-optical characteristic of the polymer-stabilized BPLC cell. In this paper, we proposed novel zig-zag electrode in cell layout and confirmed that proposed electrode shape could reduce an over 25 percent of operating voltage for BPLC cell without degradation of tranmittance by using Kerr constant simulation.
