Popis: A relatively large number of physical parameters are involved in the formation of lamellar eutectic patterns in thin-film directional solidification: parameters pertaining to the phase diagram of the alloy, diffusion coefficient in the liquid, solid-liquid and solid-solid surface energies. We present a quantitative determination of all these quantities for the CBr 4 -C 2 Cl 6 eutectic alloy, employing only the thin-film directional-solidification setup. By a study of the experimental steady-state shapes of the growth front, we obtain, in particular, the value of the characteristic length known as the Jackson-Hunt minimum-undercooling wavelength.
