Abstract
This chapter provides a short synopsis of the topics covered in a book, to act as a stand-alone summary of the contents and as a navigational aid for the benefit of the reader. Four principal growth techniques currently in use for the growth of semiconductor single crystals from metallic solutions are introduced: liquid phase epitaxy (LPE), liquid phase electroepitaxy (LPEE), the traveling heater method (THM), and liquid phase diffusion (LPD). The chapter discusses the fundamental aspects of the solution crystal growth, and develops numerical simulation models for LPE, LPEE, THM, and LPD. Details on the finite element and finite difference methods can be found in a number of outstanding treatments of the literature, which are cited throughout the book, whenever necessary.
