Surface tension gradients in free crystal growth melts give rise to convective flow. If these gradients are due to thermal gradients, the well known thermocapillary (Marangoni) convection ensues. Concentration gradients due to segregation at the interface during growth can lead to additional solutocapillary convection. A system with large solutocapillary convection is Ge-Si due to the pronounced segregation and the strong difference in surface tension; solutal buoyancy convection is also present due to the large density difference between Ge and Si. Solutocapillary convection will oppose thermocapillary convection in the Ge-Si system since Si, having the higher surface tension, is preferentially incorporated into the crystal. A set of experiments directly proving and partially quantifying the effect has been conducted under microgravity during a parabolic flight campaign by recrystallizing Ge-Si mixtures of different compositions, between 3% and 9% Si, in a crucible with tracers to visualize the movement. Solutocapillary flow with initial flow rates in excess of 5.5 cm/s at the onset of crystallization was measured. A slight dependence of the flow velocity on the initial Si content has been found. Experiments on the ground showed the same effect but with overall smaller speeds; this difference can be explained by the additional action of solutal buoyancy convection.
