Figure 1
3-D reconstructions showing the growth process of Si particles in a liquid.
White regions are the primary Si particles, translucent light gray region is the oxide skin and the dark blue background is the Cu-enriched liquid. Shown are three representative time-steps during the in situ XRT scan: (A) 2079 s (875 °C), (B) 4261 s (839 °C) and (C) 8031 s (776 °C). The time t = 0 s (910 °C) corresponds to the onset of the XRT scan, at which the sample is entirely liquid. The field-of-view measures 1664 × 1664 × 715 μm3. The specimen coordinate system 
is indicated in (A), where 
points out of the page and is parallel to the axis of rotation of the cylindrical sample. The boxed particle in (A) is considered for further analysis.
