Abstract

Experimental data and a theoretical model dealing with the morphology of the crystal-melt interface near grain boundaries of different types during silicon crystal growth by the edge-defined film-fed growth method are presented. The relationship between the morphology of the crystal-melt interface and the boundary crystallographic parameters (the grain misorientation, the boundary plane orientation, the crystallographic direction of growth for adjacent grains) is established.
