Detailed Description
The following examples are intended to further illustrate the invention without limiting it.
The thermal field structure of the polycrystalline silicon ingot furnace is provided with an upper furnace body (1) and a lower furnace body (5), wherein a side heat insulation cage (4) and an upper heat insulation plate (2) are arranged in the upper furnace body (1), a bottom heat insulation plate (6) and a heat exchange block (7) are arranged in the lower furnace body (5), a quartz crucible (10) filled with silicon materials (8) is placed in a graphite crucible (9), the graphite crucible (9) is placed on the heat exchange block, heaters (3) are arranged above and on the side of the graphite crucible (9), and the heaters (3) are controlled by the same power supply. The side heat insulation cage (4) is close to the alloy plate (12) with low high-temperature resistance emissivity arranged on the side of the heater (3), the emissivity of the alloy plate (12) is 0.2-0.5, the thickness of the alloy plate is 1-2 mm, and the alloy plate is stable in chemical property and does not react with carbon in an argon environment with the temperature of 1600 ℃. The outer side surface of the graphite crucible is coated with a coating (11) with high-temperature-resistant emissivity, the emissivity of the coating (11) is 0.9-0.95, the thickness of the coating is 80-90 mu m, and the coating is stable in chemical property and does not react with carbon in an argon environment at the temperature of 1600 ℃.
The installation and use process of the invention is as follows:
an alloy plate (12) is arranged on the side of the side heat insulation cage (4) close to the heater, and a high-temperature-resistant high-emissivity coating (11) is uniformly coated on the outer side of the graphite crucible (9). Firstly, opening an ingot furnace, laying a certain amount of polycrystalline seed crystals at the bottom of a quartz crucible, then putting a silicon material (8), putting the quartz crucible (10) into a graphite crucible (9) device, and putting the graphite crucible (9) on a heat exchange block (7).
Then the ingot furnace is closed, the upper heat insulation plate (2), the side heat insulation cage (4) and the bottom heat insulation plate (6) are closed to form a closed space, the heater (3), the heat exchange block (7), the graphite crucible (9), the quartz crucible (10) and the silicon material (8) are wrapped in the closed space, as shown in figure 1, the heater (3) starts to work, the temperature of the heat insulation cage is raised to be more than 1500 ℃, and the silicon material (8) starts to be melted. Because the temperature in the furnace is very high, the heat transfer mode in the furnace mainly depends on radiation heat exchange and heat conduction. In the invention, the surface emissivity of the side heat insulation cage (4) of the ingot furnace is low, and the heat conductivity is low, so that the heat dissipated outwards through the side heat insulation cage (4) is little. The surface emissivity of the graphite crucible (9) is very high, so compared with the graphite crucible with low surface emissivity, the graphite crucible has more radiant heat exchange quantity with the heater, and more heat is transferred to the silicon material through the graphite crucible, so the melting time of the silicon material is shorter, and the energy consumption is reduced.
And when the silicon material (8) is melted to the seed crystal laying height, the side heat insulation cage (4) is slowly lifted upwards and separated from the bottom heat insulation plate (6). Because the bottom temperature of the heat exchange block (7) is about 1420 ℃, and the furnace shell is provided with circulating water to continuously take away heat, the temperature is about room temperature. Therefore, after the side heat insulation cage (4) is separated from the bottom heat insulation plate (6), violent radiation heat exchange is carried out between the heat exchange block (7) and the furnace shell, the temperature of the seed crystals is reduced under the action of heat conduction, and the silicon liquid begins to crystallize above the seed crystals into silicon crystals which grow vertically upwards from the upper part of the seed crystals. Because the alloy plate (12) with low surface emissivity is arranged on the inner side of the side heat insulation cage (4), the surface emissivity of the outer side of the graphite crucible (9) is high, and under the action of radiation heat transfer and heat conduction, the quartz crucible can obtain more heat, so that the temperature of the silicon liquid side of the quartz crucible is higher than that of the silicon liquid, the silicon liquid cannot form nuclei and grow crystals on the side of the quartz crucible, the dislocation density of ingot casting polycrystal is reduced, and the quality of silicon ingots is improved.
Therefore, the invention can effectively reduce the melting time of the silicon material, reduce the energy consumption, effectively avoid the nucleation of the side wall of the crucible, reduce the crystal defect and improve the conversion efficiency of the battery.
