  • Abstract
    Summary form only given, as follows. Some representative vapor, melt, and solution growth techniques are described and the essential transport phenomena for each is identified. Recent research to gain further understanding and a better description of transport phenomena in crystal growth is discussed. The problems of this type include: natural convection in shallow enclosures; mixed force and free convection; convection with heat flux in more than one direction; thermosolutal convection; and thermocapillary flows. The implications of this work to improved crystal quality is indicated.<>
