Abstract

We perform a fully time-dependent linear stability analysis of the morphological stability of a planar interface during directional solidification of a binary alloy at constant velocity in the presence of an electric field. We take account of the electromigration of solute and the differing electrical conductivities of solid and liquid for a model in which the temperature gradient is constant. We compare our results with the constitutional supercooling criterion and show there may be substantial differences. We derive a modified constitutional supercooling criterion which is valid over a large range of conditions. We also find under certain conditions that the onset of instability may be time dependent.
