抄録(英)
We are preparing for crystal growth experiments in microgravity using a gradient heating furnace (GHF) on board the ISS "Kibo". The two-dimensionality in the traveling liquidus-zone (TLZ) growth should be avoided for obtaining large scale compositionally uniform alloy crystals. Factors affecting one-dimensionality are further studied theoretically and verification items are extracted. Cartridge design and fabrication of an engineering model are progressed. Here, achievements in the present preparatory stage are reported.
