Inequalities for Single Crystal Tube Growth by Edge-Defined Film-Fed Growth Technique

The axi-symmetric Young-Laplace differential equation is analyzed. Solutions of this equation can describe the outer or inner free surface of a static meniscus (the static liquid bridge free surface between the shaper and the crystal surface) occurring in single crystal tube growth. The analysis con...
