Comment on the paper "Contribution to the stability analysis of the dewetted Bridgman growth under microgravity conditions"

New considerations of the stability problem of dewetting, as addressed in the initial paper [Cryst. Res. Technol. 39, 491 (2004)], show that, in the most general case, when dewetting occurs in microgravity it is necessarily stable. This explains why the phenomenon has been observed so many times dur...

Description
Summary:New considerations of the stability problem of dewetting, as addressed in the initial paper [Cryst. Res. Technol. 39, 491 (2004)], show that, in the most general case, when dewetting occurs in microgravity it is necessarily stable. This explains why the phenomenon has been observed so many times during solidification of semiconductors in space. (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
