Abstract
Crystal growth of bulk InP using a cusped magnetic field are studied. Two Helmholz coils with opposite polarities were vertically arranged to provide the configuration for a cusped field. Turbulent flow is damped by an aligned axial field growth of InP while the opposite occurred on a cusped field. Crystals grown in the cusp configuration resembled those grown without any applied field. The melt-solid interface shape was convex for both configuration and there was no observable improvement in crystal growth resulting from the application of a cusped magnetic field.
