With reference to Fig. 3, the method for manufacturing polycrystalline silicon according to this embodiment comprises: prepare poly plant in step S310, install dummy bar in step S320, prepare starting block in step S330 by melting silicon button, melting low-purity silicon in step S340 supply, overflow molten silicon in step S350, solidify the top of carrying out refining and excising the silicon ingot cast out in step S370 in step S360 by molten silicon.
In the operation S310 preparing poly plant, prepare as the poly plant comprising vacuum chamber, first gun, the second electron beam gun, silicon melting unit and unidirectional solidification unit shown in above-mentioned Fig. 1.
In the operation S320 installing dummy bar, dummy bar is arranged on unidirectional solidification unit inner.Thereafter, in the operation S330 preparing starting block, prepare starting block by melting silicon button on dummy bar.
Particularly, the preparation of dummy bar installation and starting block can be undertaken by following process.
First, in unidirectional solidification unit inside, the dummy bar be made up of graphite etc. is installed.Thereafter on dummy bar, place silico briquette (chunk).Then, silico briquette is melted, to join dummy bar to by the second electron beam under the vacuum atmosphere of about 10-5torr.By this process, formed and have silicon button starting block, this silicon button is placed on the top of starting block and engages with the dummy bar being placed on starting block bottom.
Then, in the operation S340 of supply and melting low-purity silicon, supply dusty raw materials silicon to silicon melting unit, and irradiate the first electron beam from first gun, with melt raw material silicon.Dusty raw materials silicon can have the purity of 2N and the median size of 1 ~ 2mm.
While raw silicon is by the first electron-beam melting, the volatile components such as such as aluminium (Al), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), magnesium (Mg) and manganese (Mn) are removed by vacuum volatilization.
Volatilize under the high temperature that boiling point and vapour pressure volatile impunty under vacuo with the first electron beam lower than silicon produce.Here, by increasing output energy and the irradiation time of the first electron beam, refining efficiency can be improved.
In this operation S340, can be accelerated the first electron beam by first gun and accumulate, reach about 4000kW/m to make the first electron beam 2output energy, promote silicon melting thus and remove volatile impunty.
Here, as shown in Fig. 5 (a), first gun is configured to the surface flow controlling molten silicon, and irradiates the first electron beam with head towards the comb-like pattern that running channel is arranged in silicon melting unit, make the energy density that electron beam has near running channel, improve smelting efficiency thus.In addition, as Fig. 5 (b) and 5(c) shown in, the first electron beam is come and gone patterned illumination to running channel according to straight line, to make molten silicon to the flowing of unidirectional solidification unit, makes the temperature that molten silicon keeps identical in running channel simultaneously.The energy density of the first electron beam can be regulated, with the temperature making the temperature of this molten silicon maintain certain process applicable.
Then, in the operation S350 that molten silicon overflows, to silicon melting unit base feed silicon continuously, the amount of the molten silicon thus in silicon melting unit continues to increase, and makes molten silicon overflow from silicon melting unit and be supplied to unidirectional solidification unit by running channel.

In operation S360, starting block can be driven to make it decline with the speed of 0.005 ~ 0.05mm/s, thus implementation procedure control and stop molten silicon to leak below unidirectional solidification unit 140.
In this process, the iron (Fe) comprised in molten silicon, nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu) etc. move up along solid/liquid interfaces.In molten silicon process of setting, when solid phase keeps vertical temperature head simultaneously between liquid phase and solid phase large with the interface of liquid phase with the direction of growth, the segregation effect of this impurity can be shown fully.
According to this embodiment, in unidirectional solidification unit, make molten silicon remain on molten state by the second electron beam and making to make solid/liquid interfaces vertical with the direction of growth by the best pattern of this electron beam, molten silicon is cooled from the bottom of molten silicon, thus the temperature head between solid phase and liquid phase is maximized, improve the segregation effect of impurity thus.
Then, in the operation S370 on excision silicon ingot top, the top of the silicon ingot cast out is excised.Because the impurity comprised in molten silicon moves up along solid/liquid interfaces, the segregation of metallic impurity concentrates on the topmost (with reference to Fig. 8) of the silicon ingot cast out.Therefore, can by the excision of the topmost of the silicon ingot cast out be improved highly purified polysilicon.
According to this embodiment, by adjustment operation time and the speed of growth, final polysilicon can have the height of diameter and 1 to 1000mm being approximately 100mm.Here, control described process, to make to have concentrated the height of the silicon ingot topmost cast out of impurity to be less than 20% of whole height of specimen.
The polysilicon produced by this process can have the purity of 5N ~ 7N, therefore usefully can be applied to photovoltaic cell.
Therefore, according to the poly plant of the embodiment of the present invention and method by the melting of applying electronic bundle, vacuum refinement and unidirectional solidification refining can be carried out, provide high-purity polycrystalline silicon thus.
