Abstract

We present the results of computer simulations of body centered cubic (bcc)/melt interfaces, with particular emphasis on the “width” of the interface. Both static and dynamic properties of single crystal/liquid interfaces are examined. The implications for crystal growth near equilibrium are discussed. The results of these computer “experiments” are compared with an extended density functional theory of the solid-liquid interface.
