报告摘要：
The processing of semiconductors based on electromagnetic levitation (EML) is a challenge, because this kind of materials shows a poor electrical conductivity (σ).
In the framework of an ESA (European Space Agency) project, first attempts with highly doped Si1-xGex were made currently on board the ISS (International Space Station), where the contactless measurements on different kinds of materials were designed in EML under the microgravity condition.
Initial results indicate that although a lower σ compared to metals, the processing of the semiconductors SiGe is successful in EML with a large overheating (>350℃) in melts, which guarantees the homogeneity and thus leads to a large supercooling (~250℃) before the solidification via a homogenous nucleation.
By means of video techniques and a subsequent digital image procedure, we determined thermophysical properties of the samples, including thermal expansion β, viscosity η, surface tension γ as well as the impact from compositions. In addition, a semiconductor-metal transition upon melting was studied thereby using a designed sample coupling electronics (SCE) system.
