Zh. Shen et al., A GENERAL-SOLUTION TO LASER-INDUCED HEATING AND MELTING IN SEMICONDUCTORS, Microwave and optical technology letters, 16(5), 1997, pp. 303-307
An analytical method for heating the problem of laser heating and melt
ing is developed in this paper by suggesting a simple and reasonable t
emperature profile form. Temperature distributions in material before
melting as well as after melting are given, and the movement of the ph
ase interface ii also obtained As an illustrative example, computation
s are carried out on silicon material, and the results are in good agr
eement with those obtained by other authors. (C) 1997 John Wiley & Son
