Researchers simulate single-crystal silicon formation during laser additive manufacturing
A research team at the University of Arkansas has demonstrated that molecular dynamics (MD) simulations can reveal key mechanisms behind silicon nanoparticle crystallization during laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) printing. The findings are detailed in a non-peer-reviewed preprint available on arXiv, where the authors show how nanoparticle size and cooling rate affect the ability of silicon […]
