Abstract
The utility model discloses a necking-down crystal crucible which is suitable for growing a large-diameter high-quality single crystal material with higher density than a melt. By utilizing the physical property that the volume is reduced when the tellurium-zinc-cadmium (CdZnTe) melt solidifies, the crucible with a necking-down middle part is designed, and the crystal is grown in the crucible downwards; when the melt solidifies to the necking-down part of the crucible, the crystal is fixed by the necking-down part and stopped from sliding down; since the volume is reduced, the diameter of the crystal below the necking-down part of the crucible is smaller than the internal diameter of the crucible, and the crystal is separated from the crucible wall; and as the crystal diameter becomes larger, the clearance between the crystal and the crucible wall becomes bigger, and the separation is more obvious. The necking-down crystal crucible has the advantages of large crystal diameter and high quality.
Description
Technical field
This patent relates to a kind of crystal crucible, is specifically related to a kind of necking down N-type waferN crucible, and it is applicable to the growth of major diameter high quality single crystal that crystalline density is greater than the material of fusant density, is particularly useful for Te-Zn-Cd monocrystal growth.

In addition, Cdl-x_Znx_Te can keep good light transmission features at comparatively broad infrared band, because of and be a kind of superior material of infrared window.Moreover, tellurium-zincium-cadmium crystal also has broad application prospects at aspects such as preparing X and gamma detector, solar cell, photomodulator, and therefore, the preparation of high quality Te-Zn-Cd monocrystal body receives much attention always.
At present, the comparatively successful method of growth major diameter Te-Zn-Cd monocrystal is vertical Bridgman method (VB), VGF (VGF) and mobile heating zone method (THM).The subject matter that these methods exist is at present:
1 because Cdl-x_Znx_Te thermal conductivity is very low, and when growth major diameter crystal, solid-liquid interface is difficult to control.Therefore, single crystal diameter is difficult to increase.
2 crystal easily produce the parasitic nucleation of sidewall of crucible in crucible intercrystalline process.
3 crystal in crucible intercrystalline process because crucible causes defect concentrations in crystals higher to the stress of crystal.
4 because Cdl-x_Znx_Te stacking fault energy is very low, and therefore, the existence of stress easily causes twin.
