Abstract
Stress and strain rate distributions are calculated using finite elements analysis for steady-state growth of thin silicon sheet with temperature nonuniformities imposed in the transverse (sheet width) dimension. Significant reductions in residual stress are predicted to occur for the case where the sheet edge is cooled relative to its center provided plastic deformation with high creep rates is present.
