Metallurgy method is the exclusive purifying technique of one proposed for manufacturing solar-grade polysilicon.The method makes It is raw material with metallurgical grade silicon (MG-Si), according to the diversity of impurity with silicon physicochemical properties, optimization set acid Wash, slag refining, vacuum metling, carry beam melting, the solidification method such as refine, gradually reduce impurity in silicon Content, it is achieved impurity height selectivity, gradient type separate, and finally prepare the material of solar energy level silicon;
Alloy graining method of refining is carried in nineteen fifty-seven by northeastern Japan university Obinata and Komatsu the earliest Go out, nowadays Tokyo University, University of Toronto, Dalian University of Technology, Kunming University, Chinese Academy of Sciences's process study This is conducted extensive research by the researcher of Suo Dengduosuo colleges and universities and scientific research institution.Alloy graining refine is main It is to utilize impurity under low temperature to have the character of thermodynamic instability in Si, i.e. along with the reduction of temperature, miscellaneous The solid solubility of matter is gradually lowered.Attempt in MG-Si, add metal and form silicon binary or multicomponent alloy melt, Si is separated out as primary phase under less than Si fusing point, Si recrystallization process utilizes dividing again of impurity Join behavior and purify MG-Si;
Moria and Yoshikawa of Tokyo University has carried out deep thermodynamic study to Al-Si alloy system Research with refining effect.Under 1273K refining temperature, use a Si-Al solidification method of refining just can go Except Fe, Ti impurity of about 99%, reach the permission content of Fe and Ti in solar-grade polysilicon, simultaneously Also can effectively remove B, P impurity of 95%~98.6%, but be difficult to the most up to standard.Wu etc. have carried out Si-Sn Alloy refine-directional solidification separates, purifies the research of MG-Si, this method avoid the rubbish pollution of Sn, By metals content impurity total in MG-Si by 58.3x10-6Ppm is reduced to 7.6x10-6ppm.Oshima etc. adopt Discussing the macroscopic property of Cu in Si by the method for balancing each other, at a temperature of 1273K, in Si, Cu solid solubility is about For 10ppma, use directional freeze method to grow in Si-Cu alloy simultaneously and obtain block Si, be prevented effectively from The Cu flux pollution to primary silicon.Ban etc. have studied Si-Al alloy refine under different electromagnetic field intensity Dedoping step, research finds: have the metal impurities of less segregation coefficient not only can be enriched in alloy mutually in, Partial impurities also can be formed similar such as Al with Si7Fe2Si and Al5The mesophase of the compounds such as FeSi;Zou etc. adopt Carry out MG-Si with the mode of heating (RMF) of rotating excitation field and solidify refining treatment, apply this technology can be The edge of Si-Al alloy forms enrichment SI layer, beneficially Si and separates with alloy phase.
Although MG-Si can be purified to certain effect by the purification technique of research at present, refining temperature declines, Energy consumption is greatly reduced, but owing to introducing solvent metal, the end product of solidification refine is alloy phase and primary crystal Phase, necessarily has Si Yu Al and forms eutectic phase, causes the primary phase separated out limited, unavoidably causes simultaneously The solvent metal Al rubbish pollution to primary silicon, limits efficiently separating of primary silicon and alloy, makes follow-up point Loaded down with trivial details from program, increase production cost.Simultaneously tradition directional solidification processes is by Temperature Field Control, due to The restriction of actual experiment device, it is difficult to ensure that temperature is accurate, thus does not reaches preferable directional solidification growth Effect.Therefore, a kind of raising purifies precision, reaches the DC electric field induction of desired orientation solidification growth result Alloy directionally solidified growth, the technique of reinforced alloys refining process are urgently researched and developed.
