The dissolution of the silica crucible by the silicon melt acts as a source of oxygen doping in the growth of silicon single crystals by the Czochralski-method. Literature data on the dissolution rate of silica in silicon melts are available up to now only from ex-situ measurements. In the present w
Numerical simulations were carried out in order to study the effect of various types of magnetic fields (steady vertical and horizontal magnetic fields and a combination of a steady field and DC electric current) on melt convection and interface shape during directional solidification of multi-cryst
