Dendrite Growth Kinetics in Undercooled Melts of Intermetallic Compounds

Solidification needs an undercooling to drive the solidification front. If large undercoolings are achieved, metastable solid materials are solidified from the undercooled melt. Containerless processing provides the conditions to achieve large undercoolings since heterogeneous nucleation on containe...
