Abstract

We have estimated the growth rate of the YBa2Cu3Ox crystal grown from the solution by crystal pulling, in terms of solute diffusion in the liquid with convection. The maximum growth rate deduced from the solute diffusion rate is roughly estimated to be about one order larger than the typical measured value. This implies that the driving force for the surface reaction is significantly larger when compared to the total driving force for the growth of YBa2Cu3Ox crystal in our method.
