Constitutional supercooling due to concentration gradient at solid-liquid interface in the melt can be avioded by increasing rotational speed for growing $LiNbO_3$ single crystals from the stoichiometric melt. Growth conditions for high quality crystals were determined by rotational speed by which other growth parameters were adjusted.

Arc Welding의 경우 arc열에 의하여 생성된 용융지(Molten Pool)가 응고하는 과정은 금형주물의 응고과정과 비슷하게 생각되나 실은 응고의 제1단계에서 양자간에 큰 차이가 있다. 즉, 금형에 주입된 용융금속이 응고하는 경우는 금형과 이에 접한 주조금속과는 응고후 별도로 분리할 수 있으며, 양자가 서로 융합해서는 안될 것이다. 이에 반하여 융접의 경우에는 금형속에 있는 용 융금속과 금형이라고 볼 수 있는 모재용융부단면과는 완전히 융합되어야 할 것이다. 금형주조 부분의 응고에서는 금형에 접한 주조금속이 열적과냉각(Thermal Supercooling)을 받아 그 내부에 결정핵이 생성되어 이것이 성장하는 과정을 거칠 것이다. 그러나 융접의 경우에는 일반적으로 용융금속과 모재와는 통일계통의 재료이므로 용융금속에 접한 모재부분 자신이 종자결정(Seed Crystal)와 같은 역할을 하여 용융금속내에 새로히 결정핵을 생성함이 없이 이 위에서 직접 결 정성장이 연행되는 것이다. 이것을 Epitaxial Growth라는 하나 이것이 용접부의 응고에서의 큰 특정인 것이다. 주조, 용접 공히 열절과냉각에 의한 응고의 초기단계를 거치면 합금인 경우 그 후의 응고과정은 주로 조성적 과냉각(Constitutional Supercooling)에 따르게 될 것이다. 이 기 회에 Epitaxy에 관해서 간단히 설명하고저 한다.

Transport phenomena paly an inmportant role in bulk crystal growth processes. During crystal growth, the control of the growth front and the dopant concentration is crucial to crystal quality. The growth feasibility in thus determined by the heat transfer controlling the interface convexity and by the mass transfer controlling the constitutional supercooling. Through numerical modeling, a thorough understanding of the growth processes is possible, which in turn is a key to process improvenment. In this paper, we will summarize some work dine in my laboratory, both numerical and experimental, to illustrate the importance of understanding the transport phenomena during crystal growth processes.

Directional solidification experiments have been carried out at the solidification rates from 0.5 to 50$\mu\textrm{m}$/s in Mar M-247LC superalloy in which several important liquid properties were estimated by analyzing the interface stability and temperature gradient at the solid/liquid interface. The diffusion coefficient in the liquid was estimated by employing the constitutional supercooling criterion. The temperature gradients changed with solidification rates and latent heat of solidification. The thermal conductivities of solid and liquid could be estimated by heat flux balance at the solid liquid interface.

A literature review was conducted to survey informations available on the welding metallurgy of aluminum alloys and its effect on fusion weldability, especially on solidification cracking and pore formation. Solidification cracking behavior of Al weld is a complicate matter as compared to other high alloys, where a relatively simple Fe-X(most detrimental elements S, P, B, Si, etc) binary diagram can be successfully applicable. Both additive and synergistic effects of elements should be considered together. A same element play a different role from system to system. Porosity, caused by hydrogen contamination of the weld is one of the most troublesome welding problems. The primary sources of hydrogen are believed to be an absorbed moisture on the filler metal or base metal and in the shielding gas. It is extremely important that reliable quality-control procedures be employed to eliminate all possible sources of hydrogen contamination. Selection of proper process and parameters is sometimes more important than controlling of alloying elements in order to make a defect-free weld.

The single crystal of CdTe was grown by modified 6 zone Bridgman method under the conditions of excess Te and excess Cd. To prevent the constitutional supercooling, the crystal growth was done under the temperature gradient of $17^{\circ}C/cm$ in front of the solid /liquid interface and the growth rate was 3mm/hr. The grain morphologies and the growth mechanism were investigated in excess Te and excess Cd conditions. The grain size of excess Te crystal was increased with an increase of the distance from the tip but, in the case of excess Cd crystal, single crystal was not obtained because of the cavities due to the excess Cd vapors so that the grain size was not increased with an increase of the distance from the tip. In addition, the growth of single crystal of CdTe was done with repeated necking ampoule. It was found that the necking had no effects on the grain selection because the cavities trapped in the necking portion acted as heterogeneous nucleation sites.

Single crystals of TeO2 with large diameter were grown by Czochralski technique with auto-diameter control system. The ratio of crystal to crucible was 60-70%. The effect of critical pulling and rotation rate on the crystal quality was studied. Optimum growth parameters for high quality crystal pulling rate was less than 1.2 mm/hr. The solid-liquid interface was convex at the rotation rate of 10-23 rpm and concave at the rotation rate of more than 25 rpm, depending on the size of crystal and crucible. The platinum concentration in the melts is one of the main factors of the constitutional supercooling and thus the bubble entrapment in the growing crystal. Growth axis was confirmed to {110} direction during the whole growth procedure. Infrared spectrometric study and dislocation density measurment by chemical etching method on the grown crystal were performed. Finally, the reasons of cooperation of striations, inclusions, and optical inhomogeneities were discussed.

7000-series aluminum alloys are noted for their superior strength compared with other Al alloys, and their billets are generally fabricated by direct-chill (DC) casting. Surface defects in a DC-cast aluminum billet are mainly related to exudation and the meniscus freezing phenomenon, which are influenced by alloy compositions, casting speed, and casting temperature. 7000-series aluminum alloys have a wide freezing range during solidification, which makes it easy for casting defects to occur. In this study, we investigated surface defect evolution in casting billets of Al-8Zn-2Mg-2Cu alloy fabricated by a DC casting process. The billets showed "wavy" or "dotted" surfaces. The wavy surface was formed by meniscus freezing at a lower casting speed (200 mm/min) and temperature (655 ℃). In the wavy surface, refined dendritic cells were observed in a concave region due to the constitutional supercooling caused by meniscus freezing. Meanwhile, at a higher casting temperature (675 ℃), the dotted surface was formed by pore formation. In the dotted surfaces in the billet formed at a high casting speed (230 mm/min), an exudation layer was formed by the high metallostatic head pressure. The dotted region and the smooth region had a refined dendritic morphology and a columnar morphology at the exudation layer, respectively. This is attributed to the formation of gas pores in the dotted region.
