Abstract :
In this work, the MASTRAPP model has been used to investigate the effect of growth conditions on the development of thermal stress in a HPLEC grown InP crystal. In particular, it examines the variation of the resulting thermal stress under the conditions of both high and low axial temperature gradients. The effect of melt flow on stress development has also been examined
