Description

The heat exchange platform that is used for the improvement structure of polycrystalline silicon ingot or purifying furnace
Technical field
The utility model relates to the polycrystalline silicon ingot casting furnace apparatus, is specifically related to be used for the heat exchange platform of the improvement structure of polycrystalline silicon ingot or purifying furnace.
Background technology
Polycrystalline silicon ingot or purifying furnace is the main production equipments of polysilicon in the present photovoltaic industry, and its function is that polysilicon is become the polycrystal silicon ingot that certain crystal growth direction is arranged after setting the fusing of technology process, crystallographic orientation, annealing, cooling several stages.The required environment of polycrystalline silicon ingot casting process is polycrystalline ingot furnace thermal field.Through power distribution, the position of lagging material, the thickness distribution of well heater in the rational design thermal field, can change the crystal growth direction of final polycrystal silicon ingot.The principle of work of this equipment is as shown in Figure 1: during work; The silicon material that at first will put into crucible carries out heat fused; Open the Thermal insulation cage of bottom then; Make the heat exchange platform (also claiming heat conductor) of crucible bottom externally to carry out heat loss through radiation, make the crucible bottom temperature descend, the silicon material of fusing upwards carries out directional freeze from the bottom.In the polycrystalline silicon growth process, the control of the temperature of crucible bottom is determined by heat loss through radiation.Main passing through regulated the power of well heater and the aperture of bottom Thermal insulation cage, lowers the temperature through the mode of heat exchange platform heat loss through radiation, controls the silicon ingot speed of growth.
Be the thermal field one-piece construction sectional view that Chinese invention patent " follow-up heat insulation ring thermal field structure that is used for vertical oriented growth of polysilicon " (number of patent application 201010108876.X) is disclosed among Fig. 2, used same temperature control mode.Though this technological operation is simple, since inconsistent around the Thermal insulation cage of bottom to the path of circular bottom of furnace body heat radiation, make heat exchange platform temperature high in the middle of low all around, skewness; Increase crystal vertical direction heat conduction efficiency along with the silicon ingot height reduces simultaneously, causes crystalline growth velocity progressively to slow down, and the speed of growth of its silicon ingot is difficult to accurately control through the mode of radiation cooling more; Simultaneously, because of radiating rate has restriction, influence factor is many, the temperature of heat exchange platform can't accurately control and temperature distributing disproportionation even, cause silicon melt at a large amount of forming core of crucible bottom, and crystal grain quantity too much hinders it and is grown to serve as big crystal grain.Because crystal grain is many, so exists the crystal boundary that has absorbed impurity and dislocation in a large number on the silicon chip, in the silicon forbidden band, introduce deep energy level, become effective deathnium of photoproduction minority carrier, reduce the photoelectric transformation efficiency of battery.
The water-cooled technology of employing is also arranged, but because of the temperature of crucible bottom and heat exchange platform generally has more than 1000 ℃, as the water cooling mode that is adopted on the general industry, it is unpractical in the heat exchange platform, feeding water coolant.Therefore, existing water-cooling pattern all is the copper pipe (as shown in Figure 3) of logical water coolant in below the heat exchange platform, being provided with.Because this scheme is actually through water coolant the heat exchange platform is carried out heat exchange, by the heat exchange platform crucible bottom is carried out heat exchange again, its heat exchange mode efficient is very low.Because water temperature can not be too high, can not stop again supplying water, and have the fixed minimum power consumption in addition, the water-cooling project consumed power is big, therefore is difficult to temperature is precisely controlled, and adopts few during the historical facts or anecdotes border produces.
Chinese invention patent " gas quench system and the method that are used for the polycrystalline ingot furnace " (number of patent application 201110040032.0) has disclosed a kind of gas quench system and method (as shown in Figure 4) that is used for the polycrystalline ingot furnace; The below that is the heat exchange platform (in the document, being called as heat conductor) of thermal field in ingot furnace is provided with the graphite body that inside has gas channel, and the heat of crucible bottom is passed to graphite body through heat exchange platform (heat conductor).This technology gets into from the inlet mouth of gas channel through making rare gas element, and gas stream is through graphite body inside and take away heat, discharges to realize heat radiation from the air outlet of gas channel then.Compare with the radiating mode among Fig. 1,2; This technology is the gas quench system that increases an active heat removal in the thermal field bottom; And through regulating the gas flow control active heat removal amplitude in the access equipment, control crystal below rate of heat release that can be is initiatively effectively controlled crystalline growth velocity.And compare with the radiating mode among Fig. 3, because rare gas element does not have the restriction of temperature, and do not need absolute isolating seal; Therefore at noncrystal growth phases such as fusings, can close cooling gas, cut down the consumption of energy; And the flow of adjustments of gas significantly in long brilliant process; The inlet gas temperature is about 25 degree, outlet can be in 11000 degree arbitrary temp unaffected, so its heat radiation amplitude is big, security is high; And the water cooling scheme of Fig. 3 in any stage, must be kept necessary discharge, and will satisfy the requirement that the cooling leaving water temperature(LWT) must not surpass 50 degree, and energy consumption is big, little, the low precision of heat radiation amplitude adjusted scope, and poor stability.
But identical with water cooling mode among Fig. 3 is that the gas cooling technology among Fig. 4 still fails to break away from the constraint of the intrinsic thoughtcast of former technology.The latter still is placed on center of gravity through the heat exchange device temperature of heat exchange platform is controlled, by the temperature variation and then indirect the realization the crucible bottom temperature controlling of heat exchange platform.Owing to have too much indirect factor between controlled target and the controlled member; Cause mode still to have problems such as non-linear, large time delay, tight coupling; As use its control effect of traditional PID controller still undesirable, very strong to operator's dependency, working strength is big, inefficiency.
To sum up, increasing the casting polycrystalline silicon grain-size, reduce crystal boundary density and then improve the silion cell photoelectric transformation efficiency, is the target that present international photovoltaic circle is seek assiduously.Though came out existing nearly 10 years so far from polycrystalline silicon ingot or purifying furnace, what generally adopt is the control techniques that above-mentioned mobile heat-insulation cage carries out radiation cooling all the time, its technological improvement fails to make a breakthrough always.Therefore, searching can be controlled heat dissipation capacity in the polycrystalline silicon growth process more accurately, to improve the polysilicon product quality, becomes the industry problem demanding prompt solution.
