Analysis of the Effect of a Vertical Magnetic Field on Melt Convection and Oxygen Transport During Directional Solidification of Multi-Crystalline Silicon by Numerical Simulation

Melt convection during the directional solidification process of multi-crystalline silicon plays a critical role in the transport of impurities. The utilization of a static magnetic field is an effective way to control the melt convection pattern. Studying the effect of the Lorentz force induced by...
