Class Information
Number: 117/209
Name: Single-crystal, oriented-crystal, and epitaxy growth processes; non-coating apparatus therefor > Apparatus > For crystallization from liquid or supercritical state > Seed pulling > Including solid member shaping means other than seed or product (e.g., edfg die)
Description: Subject matter including a solid member (i.e., mechanical or physical shaper or die), other than the seed or the single-crystal* product, is provided sufficiently close to the precursor*-product interface to affect, and at least partially define, the shape of the crystal as it is pulled from the liquid and passes against the shaping means.
