Crystal pulling from the melt is an industrial process. It is applied primarily in the USA, Japan, UK, France, and Germany and provides bulk crystals for the chips industry. The author is a world-recognized authority on this (Czochralski crystal-growth) process and he has published many fundamental papers during his more than 30 years of research. The book addresses practical crystal growers and modellers alike. It provides the understanding of convective flow and heat and mass transfer and of the coupling of these effects. It is a modern, complete and non-trivial text.
