Abstract

AbstractExperimental observations of the melt/crystal interface in the directional solidification of a thin sample of a binary alloy are reported for conditions only slightly beyond those for the onset of morphological instability. Spectral analysis for long times shows dynamics leading to a band of most probable wavelengths with sharply selected peaks at wavelengths significantly below the most dangerous wavelength predicted by linear stability theory. These large-amplitude cells develop first in packets that spread to fill the interface.
