Concrete running example:
Polycrystalline silicon ingot or purifying furnace is a kind of silicon remelting device, (600 ~ 700KG) pack in stove realize to need to reach the polysilicon that certain purity requires, and at first need to vacuumize operation by processing requirement, carry out the whole leak detection operation of body of heater after reaching the certain vacuum degree, leakage rate meets the demands and proceeds heating process.At this moment, bottom the top side, institute's having heaters is started working.Due to this moment temperature relatively low, there is larger error in infrared measurement of temperature instrument thermometric, therefore each well heater of heating phase all adopts power to control, carry out power stage according to technique initialization, owing to having adopted six Omnidirectional heatings at the bottom of the top side, power stage is larger, and the interior temperature of stove is risen to more than 1000 ℃.After top temperature measurement instrument temperature reaches 1500 ℃, enter the thawing operation, the power stage of well heater adopts temperature to control, and regulates heater power by the variation of temperature measurer detected temperatures, makes in stove that at the bottom of the top side, the temperature of each position all meets technique initialization.Continue after more than ten hours, the solid state si material all to be melted into liquid state, and stablize about 1 hour, by high temperature, the impurity in silicon material and thermal field is evaporated, fully impurity is discharged.Then, near the time about 1 hour drops to temperature the silicon ctystallizing point, prepare for the crystal growth, each heater power descends, and especially bottom heater 6 reduces gradually until close.
The long brilliant stage need to be opened the heat-insulation cage body, and the heat radiation of radiating block to the furnace wall, and is taken away by the water coolant in body of heater, and this moment, at first bottom temp reduced, and formed thermograde from bottom to top.Due to temperature that can direct-detection crucible sidepiece backplate, and can control thermograde on vertical direction according to the power of this temperature regulation top side portion well heater, make long brilliant speed more stable.Under common ingot casting thermal field condition, in the long brilliant later stage, in silicon liquid, liquid reduces and solid further increases, and the radiating efficiency variation is subject to the impact of sidepiece well heater, and long crystal boundary face easily forms the phenomenon of excess convexity, needs to strengthen surrounding and dispels the heat.Adopt thermal field structure of the present utility model, can adjust flexibly the power match between the sidepiece well heater, vertical thermograde is further strengthened, reduce surrounding power, improve the deviation of horizontal temperature in thermal field, reduce the phenomenon of interface excess convexity, improve the crystal orientation verticality.
After long crystalline substance is completed, need to carry out annealing process, the purpose of annealing is that the temperature of whole silicon ingot is reached unanimously, eliminates the thermal stresses of bringing due to temperature deviation.Therefore, close the heat-insulation cage body and make the integral body that forms sealing in the heat-insulation cage body, and will grow the bottom heater 6 that the brilliant stage closes and reopen, make the silicon ingot bottom temp rapidly increase to 1300 ℃.Due to the cause of six heating at the bottom of the top side, anneal quicker, nearly one hour of time shorten.Then, proceed process for cooling, reopen isolation cage body after bottom heater 6 is closed, make silicon ingot slowly cool to 400 ℃ of left and right in 10 ~ 12 hours, then body of heater is opened, take out silicon ingot.
Adopt this thermal field structure, under the ingot casting condition that feeds intake greatly, the silicon ingot height is under the application scenario of 380 ~ 420mm, by adjusting the power match of top side well heater, but vertical temperature gradient is larger more even, accelerates long brilliant speed of later stage, shorten the long brilliant time of corner, make long crystal boundary face level more.
