Abstract
The effect of the anisotropic interfacial energy on dendritic growth has been an important subject, and has preoccupied many researchers in the field of materials science and condensed matter physics. The present paper is dedicated to the study of the effect of full 3-D anisotropic surface tension on the steady state solution of dendritic growth. We obtain the analytical form of the first order approximation solution in the regular asymptotic expansion around the Ivantsov’s needle growth solution, which extends the steady needle growth solution of the system with isotropic surface tension obtained by Xu and Yu (J. J. Xu and D. S. Yu, J. Cryst. Growth, 1998, 187: 314; J. J. Xu, Interfacial Wave Theory of Pattern Formation: Selection of Dendrite Growth and Viscous Fingering in a Hele-Shaw Flow, Berlin: Springer-Verlag, 1997).
