Background
Czochralski (CZ) method comprises melting a polycrystalline silicon ingot in a quartz crucible by heating in a single crystal furnace, and immersing a rod-shaped seed crystal (referred to as seed crystal) having a diameter of only 10mm in the melt. At a proper temperature, silicon atoms in the melt form regular crystals on a solid-liquid interface along the silicon atom arrangement structure of the seed crystal, and the crystals become single crystals. The seed crystal is slightly rotated and lifted upwards, so that silicon atoms in the molten liquid continue to crystallize on the previously formed single crystal and continue to have a regular atomic arrangement structure. If the whole crystallization environment is stable, crystals can be formed repeatedly, and finally a cylindrical silicon single crystal with orderly arranged atoms, namely a silicon single crystal ingot, is formed. When crystallization is accelerated, the diameter of the crystal becomes coarse, the diameter can be made fine by increasing the rate of increase, and the crystallization rate can be suppressed by increasing the temperature. On the contrary, if the crystallization is slowed and the diameter becomes thin, the control is performed by reducing the pulling speed and the temperature. At the beginning of crystal pulling, a thin neck with a certain length and a diameter of 3-5 mm is led out to eliminate crystal dislocation, and the process is called seeding. Then the diameter of the single crystal is enlarged to meet the process requirement, and the process enters an equal diameter stage until most of the silicon melt is crystallized into a single crystal ingot, and only a small amount of residual materials are left.
During crystal growth, different supplies of protective gas are required for the growth of different crystals. In order to obtain crystals with good integrity, the diffusion speed needs to be controlled and inert gas protection needs to be added. Therefore, in the CZ method crystal growth process, inert gas needs to be supplemented and switched according to gas components in the crystal growth furnace, but the existing gas supplementing operation is mainly carried out manually, the inflation process of the crystal growth is that the vacuum pressure gauge is observed manually to open and close the inflation valve, the automation degree is low, the inflation quantity and the pressure have large deviation, the uniformity of the crystal is not good enough, the crystal growth is greatly influenced, and the manual operation efficiency is low.
