Grain size refinement was found in the Ag-15 wt% Ge hypoeuteciic alloy. With inereasing undercoolings the feather-like structure disappeared in the Ag-19wt% Ge eutectic alloy, and even silver slips showed up at sufficient undercoolings. Nevertheless, the fact that germanium had nucleated in preference to silver was indicated by a fine germanium line in the middle of the silver slips. The various morphologies of the germanium phase in the Ag-25 wt% Gehypereutectic alloy including the five-fold symmetry structure were explained by the joint action of high undercoolings (i.e. growth velocities) and density differences. The corpled zone of this alloy system was qualitatively estimated. %K Ag-Ge alloys %K nucleation %K undercooling %K rapid solidification
