Description

A kind of by silicon ore device preparing HIGH-PURITY SILICON and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of HIGH-PURITY SILICON, especially relate to a kind of by silicon ore device preparing HIGH-PURITY SILICON and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Because energy dilemma and traditional fossil energy are to the pollution of environment, for realizing Sustainable development, corresponding policy has all been put into effect to develop new forms of energy in countries in the world, adjustment energy consumption structure.And sun power is inexhaustible clean energy, and will 21 century be become solve the important means of energy problem and environmental problem because of advantages such as it is widely distributed, cleanliness without any pollution.
Solar cell comprises crystal silicon cell, hull cell, organic solar batteries, quantum dot array solar cell etc., and wherein, the solar cell of employing prepared by crystalline silicon, because of advantages such as its stable performance, life-span length, is the main product of current photovoltaic industry.For solar-grade polysilicon, at present, most widely used production technique is improved Siemens, and first this kind of technique be that silicon ore is obtained by carbon reduction the industrial silicon that purity is at least 2N, and then industrial silicon is generated SiHCl with hydrogen chloride gas precursor reactant under the high temperature of about 1400 DEG C 3(or SiCl 4), then through distilation, with high-purity H in Siemens reactor 2reduction obtains the high purity polycrystalline silicon that purity can reach 12N.So far the polysilicon in the whole world more than 80% is all by this explained hereafter.These class methods have many deficiencies and shortcoming, and such as initial investment is large, energy consumption is large, cost is high, the construction period is long, and intermediate product is poisonous, and a large amount of hazardous gas such as use liquid chlorine and hydrogen etc., exists environment and potential safety hazard.Therefore, the focal issue that novel low-cost solar level polysilicon production technology becomes industrial community and academia's concern is found.
In recent years, domestic and international many researchists are devoted to the research of producing solar-grade polysilicon by physical metallurgy method, the people such as Hiroyuki Baba as nippon company introduces the method that solar-grade polysilicon is prepared by the said firm: the Pure Silicon Metal (MG-Si) with 99.5% is raw material, with argon plasma oxidation except boron, vacuum electron beam dephosphorization, obtain the P type polysilicon that resistivity is 1.0 Ω/cm, then remove metallic impurity through the method for directional freeze, obtain the solar-grade polysilicon of 6N.Elkem company of Norway is by slag making acid washing method purifying polycrystalline silicon, the impurity such as liquid oxide removal B, P are added in the silicon liquid of melting, particle is ground into after solidifying, then remove the metallic impurity of particle surface with acid wash, then obtain silicon ingot through operations such as directional freezes in specially designed apparatus for directional solidification.
But, the main technique of current metallurgy method all has some limitations, as Chinese patent CN101585536 adopts industrial silica fume through ultrasonic and gas stirring and pickling process, remove the major impurity in the industrial silicon of surface exposure, then purify further via vacuum induction melting, the semicontinuous unidirectional solidification of three district's temperature controls, high vacuum electron beam melting and the semicontinuous unidirectional solidification of secondary three district temperature control, finally obtain polycrystal silicon ingot.Although this patent is carry out in a vacuum oven to follow-up operation from vacuum melting, but the silicon material putting into stove is the industrial silicon that silicon ore obtains after carbon reduction, in the process of reduction, also have a large amount of waste heats not directly to be applied, industrial silicon also will be pulverized and pickling by the later stage, this operation works under hard conditions, and energy consumption is large.Chinese patent CN101759187 proposes a kind of by reactor and catcher device dimerous.Wherein, reactor is made up of reductive agent reserve room and reaction chamber two portions.Catcher is made up of one-level catcher and second capture device, and control liquid Zn and 7N level silicon tetrachloride gas are 650 ~ 900 DEG C of reactions, and product is brought into catcher, and by collecting, the polysilicon vacuum obtained distills, directional freeze obtains solar-grade polysilicon.Although this method is the silicon tetrachloride that make use of the 7N level that Siemens Method silicon tetrachloride gas metallurgical level silicon tetrachloride gas obtains through distilation, the equipment requirements of this method is harsh, is unfavorable for the reduction of cost and the scale operation of polysilicon.
In addition, smelting process also has fused salt electrolysis process.The method is raw material with industrial silicon, adds halogenide fused salt, adds thermal electrolysis, and negative electrode is formed high-purity siliceous deposits.This method is having some superiority except B with except in P, and remove micro-metals in the degree of depth and acquire a certain degree of difficulty, the silicon of generation just need can reach the specification of quality of solar-grade polysilicon after refining, is purified to more than 5N very difficult.Fused salt electrolysis laboratory obtains certain success, but wants heavy industrialization to there is equipment and technologic difficulty.
To sum up, current processing method all Shortcomings, do not make good use of the waste heat in reducing and smelting process or are appear in different stations to carry out from some operation that industrial silicon is purified to the technique of solar-grade polysilicon, and scattered and disappeared a large amount of heats, increase energy consumption, thus add cost.
