Description
技术领域technical field
本发明属于单晶硅生长技术领域,具体涉及一种单晶炉,本发明还涉及采用上述单晶炉进行单晶硅棒测量的方法。The invention belongs to the technical field of single crystal silicon growth, in particular to a single crystal furnace, and also relates to a method for measuring single crystal silicon rods by using the single crystal furnace.
背景技术Background technique
多晶硅是生产太阳能光伏产品和半导体产品的主要原材料。切克劳斯基(Czochralski,简称Cz)法是单晶硅最常用的制备方法之一,高纯度固态多晶硅原料在晶体生长炉(单晶炉)内的坩埚中熔化形成熔体,通过籽晶提拉机构下降籽晶使其与旋转坩埚中的熔融状态下的硅熔汤接触,然后,将籽晶按照一定的工艺方法提拉出,熔体围绕籽晶凝固形成单晶硅棒。Polysilicon is the main raw material for the production of solar photovoltaic products and semiconductor products. The Czochralski (Cz) method is one of the most commonly used preparation methods for single crystal silicon. The pulling mechanism lowers the seed crystal to make it contact with the molten silicon soup in the rotating crucible. Then, the seed crystal is pulled out according to a certain technological method, and the melt solidifies around the seed crystal to form a single crystal silicon rod.
传统的Cz单晶炉上不具备单晶硅棒测量组件,生产过程中一般在单晶硅棒冷却出炉后需要对单晶硅棒进行测量。测量的参数一般包括,晶身总长度、晶身良好长度、尾部良好长度、最大直径、最小直径以及特定点位的直径(如每隔5mm测量一次),需要对尺寸的测量做很多复杂的工作。此外,现有的测量方法中主要采用人工的方法在单晶硅棒完全取出后转移到地面进行测量,在单晶硅棒转移过程中多采用人工手扶的方式对单晶硅棒进行保护,在单晶硅棒转移过程中由于惯性的存在,若不对单晶硅棒进行保护可能会导致在牵引室开始移动和停止时单晶硅棒和牵引室内壁碰撞而损坏单晶硅棒或损坏拉晶炉,也有可能因此而造成安全事故,而采取人工手扶单晶硅棒随着牵引室转移的方法一定程度上解决了以上问题。但是,当人工手扶单晶硅棒转移时会导致操作人员的肢体部分存在于单晶硅棒的竖直投影面之中,这是十分危险的不安全的。并且目前的生产中,单晶硅棒在进入到下一工序之前必须要进行测量并备案,实现一晶一档,方便后期硅片的跟踪和工艺调整等。在人工测量过程中,工序费时费力,严重延长了单晶硅生产的时间,制约了直拉式单晶硅的生产效率。总而言之,人工操作存在繁杂、效率低下、精度较差,以及测量后数据量较小的问题。The traditional Cz single crystal furnace does not have single crystal silicon rod measuring components. In the production process, it is generally necessary to measure the single crystal silicon rod after the single crystal silicon rod is cooled and released from the furnace. The measured parameters generally include the total length of the crystal body, the good length of the crystal body, the good length of the tail, the maximum diameter, the minimum diameter and the diameter of a specific point (for example, once every 5mm), which requires a lot of complicated work to measure the size. . In addition, in the existing measurement methods, manual methods are mainly used to transfer the single crystal silicon rod to the ground for measurement after the single crystal silicon rod is completely taken out. During the transfer process of the single crystal silicon rod, due to the existence of inertia, if the single crystal silicon rod is not protected, it may cause the single crystal silicon rod to collide with the wall of the pulling chamber when the pulling chamber starts to move and stops, which may damage the single crystal silicon rod or damage the pulling chamber. The crystal furnace may also cause safety accidents, and the method of manually holding the single crystal silicon rod with the traction chamber to a certain extent solves the above problems. However, when the single crystal silicon rod is manually transferred by hand, the operator's limbs will exist in the vertical projection plane of the single crystal silicon rod, which is very dangerous and unsafe. And in the current production, single crystal silicon rods must be measured and filed before entering the next process, so as to realize one crystal and one file, which is convenient for later silicon wafer tracking and process adjustment. In the manual measurement process, the process is time-consuming and labor-intensive, which seriously prolongs the production time of monocrystalline silicon and restricts the production efficiency of Czochralski monocrystalline silicon. All in all, manual operations are complicated, inefficient, and have poor precision, as well as a small amount of data after measurement.
为了满足单晶硅棒生产后尺寸采集的要求,对单晶硅棒进行有效的测量,提高单晶硅棒的生产效率并弥补过多人工操作导致测量精度不高的技术缺陷。已有专利公开一种用于单晶硅棒的测量装置。公开号为CN109029197A的专利申请给出一种用于单晶硅棒的测量装置,该专利涉及硅棒检测技术领域,尤其涉及一种用于单晶硅棒的测量装置,包括长度测量部分和直径测量部分;长度测量部分包含工作台、固定架,且固定架固定横杆;横杆的外侧套接滑套,且所述滑套的底部固定气动杆;气动杆的底部固定有固定板,第一测量板的底部边缘处固定挡板,且第一测量板的一端通过卷尺连接第二测量板;第二测量板的顶部有第二连接杆,且第二连接杆通过发条弹簧连接转轴;第二连接杆固定活动板,活动板连接限位杆。该发明操作简单,可有降低测量出现错位、偏位的差错。但是以上发明专利所涉及的一种用于单晶硅棒的测量装置的结构和功能过于简单,只能简单的测量单晶硅棒的长度和直径,这越来越难满足半导体行业对晶棒数据量的要求。此外,该专利所涉及的一种用于单晶硅棒的测量装置在实际使用时需要人力操作且效率较低,速度较慢。授权公告号CN206709748U和授权公告号CN203929026U的实用新型专利给出了一种多晶硅棒生长直径的测量装置,两个实用新型所提出的一种多晶硅棒生长直径的测量装置主要用于在多晶硅棒的生产过程中准确测量多晶硅棒的生长直径。一方面,单晶硅棒的生产过程和多晶硅棒的生产过程所采取的工艺方法和使用的设备大不相同。此外,按目前业内主流的做法,即使在单晶硅棒生长过程中进行了直径的测量,还需在单晶硅棒冷却取出后再次进行测量。这主要考虑到生产过程中所测试的直径精度不高以及由于温度变化导致的尺寸微变。In order to meet the requirements of size acquisition of single crystal silicon rods after production, effective measurement of single crystal silicon rods can improve the production efficiency of single crystal silicon rods and make up for the technical defects of low measurement accuracy caused by excessive manual operations. An existing patent discloses a measuring device for a single crystal silicon rod. The patent application with publication number CN109029197A provides a measuring device for single crystal silicon rods, the patent relates to the technical field of silicon rod detection, in particular to a measuring device for single crystal silicon rods, including a length measuring part and a diameter The measuring part; the length measuring part includes a worktable, a fixing frame, and the fixing frame fixes the crossbar; the outer side of the crossbar is sleeved with a sliding sleeve, and the bottom of the sliding sleeve is fixed with a pneumatic rod; the bottom of the pneumatic rod is fixed with a fixing plate, the first A baffle plate is fixed at the bottom edge of a measuring plate, and one end of the first measuring plate is connected to the second measuring plate through a tape measure; the top of the second measuring plate has a second connecting rod, and the second connecting rod is connected to the rotating shaft through a spring; The second connecting rod fixes the movable plate, and the movable plate is connected with the limit rod. The invention has simple operation and can reduce the errors of dislocation and deviation in measurement. However, the structure and function of a measuring device for a single crystal silicon rod involved in the above invention patent is too simple, and it can only simply measure the length and diameter of the single crystal silicon rod, which is more and more difficult to meet the requirements of the semiconductor industry for crystal rods. data volume requirements. In addition, the measurement device for single crystal silicon rods involved in this patent requires manual operation and has low efficiency and slow speed in actual use. The utility model patents with the authorization announcement number CN206709748U and the authorization announcement number CN203929026U provide a measuring device for the growth diameter of polycrystalline silicon rods, and the two utility models propose a measuring device for the growth diameter of polycrystalline silicon rods. The growth diameter of polycrystalline silicon rods is accurately measured during the process. On the one hand, the production process of monocrystalline silicon rods and the production process of polycrystalline silicon rods are quite different in the process methods and equipment used. In addition, according to the current mainstream practice in the industry, even if the diameter is measured during the growth of the single crystal silicon rod, the measurement needs to be performed again after the single crystal silicon rod is cooled and taken out. This is mainly due to the inaccuracy of the diameters tested during production and the slight dimensional changes due to temperature changes.
因此,为了缩短单晶硅棒冷却后的测量的时间,提高单晶硅棒冷却后测量的精度,同时减少人工操作,亟待对单晶硅棒取出后的测量工作进行调整。Therefore, in order to shorten the measurement time after the single crystal silicon rod is cooled, improve the measurement accuracy after the single crystal silicon rod is cooled, and reduce manual operations, it is urgent to adjust the measurement work after the single crystal silicon rod is taken out.

扫描元件54的内侧壁沿周向均匀间隔设置有至少三组三维扫描仪进行信息的搜集,扫描的范围可以覆盖整个单晶硅棒6的圆周。通过三维扫描仪采集的数据在外部控制器上通过处理生成单晶硅棒6几何表面的点云数据,通过进一步处理将这些点插补成单晶硅棒6表面形状,创建出精确的三维模型供技术人员参考使用。上述的三维扫描仪可选用市场上存在的成品三维扫描仪组装至扫描元件内,如SCANTECH公司的KSCAN20复合式三维扫描仪、新拓公司的XTOM-MATRIX三维高精度测量仪等,上述三维扫描仪均为非接触式,可以避免对已经拉制完成的单晶硅棒6表面造成损伤。At least three groups of three-dimensional scanners are arranged on the inner sidewall of the
单晶硅棒转移保护组件4为一端开口的矩形框架结构,单晶硅棒转移保护组件4的开口端套设于牵引室1对称的两侧,转轴42设置有两个并分别连接于单晶硅棒转移保护组件4开口端与牵引室1之间,定位元件43为孔形结构并开设置于单晶硅棒转移保护组件4远离牵引室1的一端,定位元件43内设置有柔性缓冲元件44。动力元件一41同轴连接于两个转轴42中一个且远离牵引室1的一端。单晶硅棒转移保护组件4为已经拉制完成的单晶硅棒6在其转移阶段提供保护,保护的方式主要是单晶硅棒转移保护组件4在通过转轴42旋转一定的角度(可绕转轴42旋转160°)至竖直状态后锁紧,随后单晶硅棒6下降一定高度,单晶硅棒转移保护组件4拖住单晶硅棒6,随牵引室1一同移动到指定位置。The single crystal silicon rod
