Detailed Description
The utility model is described in detail below with reference to the figures and the specific embodiments.
This example proposes a single crystal furnace capable of controlling the bulk micro-defect density of a silicon single crystal, as shown in FIG. 1,
a temperature measuring device 40 for monitoring the temperature gradient of an equal-diameter section of a pulled silicon single crystal 30 and a regulating device 50 for regulating the temperature gradient of the equal-diameter section are arranged in a furnace body of the single crystal furnace, the temperature measuring device 40 and the regulating device 50 are fixedly arranged on the inner side of the furnace body, and the regulating device 50 is arranged around the outer diameter of the equal-diameter section.
Specifically, the temperature measuring device 40 comprises a first temperature measuring instrument 41, a second temperature measuring instrument 42 and a third temperature measuring instrument 43 which are arranged along the height of the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30, and the first temperature measuring instrument 41, the second temperature measuring instrument 42 and the third temperature measuring instrument 43 are used for measuring the temperature of different positions and heights of the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30. The thermometers are all instruments on the market, are covered by a high-temperature-resistant glass cover, and directly penetrate through the light beam to be perpendicular to the outer surface of the silicon single crystal 30 so as to measure the surface temperature of the equal-diameter section. All data are transmitted to an external controller in real time, and the controller can automatically judge whether the temperature of the position where the temperature measuring instrument is located meets the standard temperature or not.
Wherein, the first thermodetector 31 is positioned in the main chamber 10 of the single crystal furnace and positioned on a furnace cover which is obliquely arranged above the guide cylinder in the main chamber 10; the second temperature measuring instrument 32 and the third temperature measuring instrument 33 are both positioned in the auxiliary chamber 20 of the single crystal furnace, and the second temperature measuring instrument 32 is positioned below the third temperature measuring instrument 33. Since the temperature in the constant diameter section is decreased stepwise in the pulling direction of the silicon single crystal 30, that is, the temperature on the side close to the solid-liquid interface is higher than the temperature on the side away from the solid-liquid interface, it can be seen that the temperature at the position of the first thermometer 31 is the highest, the temperature at the position of the third thermometer 33 is the lowest, and the temperature at the position of the second thermometer 32 is between the first thermometer 31 and the third thermometer 33.
Since the temperature of the solid-liquid interface at the start of growth of the silicon single crystal 30 is about 1420 ℃ during the growth, the equilibrium temperature can be maintained due to point defects generated at the solid-liquid interface, that is, the gaps and vacancies at the solid-liquid interface are balanced. The silicon single crystal 30 is continuously pulled upward after being solidified, the temperature of the constant diameter section after leaving the solid-liquid interface starts to be gradually reduced with the rising of the silicon single crystal 30, the temperature of the constant diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30 starts to be reduced from 1400 ℃, at this time, oxygen in the constant diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30 starts to diffuse to the outside of the silicon single crystal 30, and gaps and vacancies in the constant diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30 start to recombine and form point defects. When the temperature is reduced to 1150 ℃, supersaturated point defects begin to precipitate, and point micro-defects are formed. When the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30 continues to move upwards, and the point micro-defect in the silicon single crystal 30 is reduced to 950 ℃ from 1150 ℃, the point micro-defect consumes the adjacent point defect, so that the vacancy defect and oxygen are polymerized to form an oxygen compound, and the point micro-defect starts to nucleate, grow and expand. When the temperature of the silicon single crystal 30 is continuously lowered from 950 ℃ to 600 ℃, vacancies and oxygen atoms form oxygen polymers, and the remaining vacancy point defects promote the nucleation of oxygen precipitates to form bulk micro-defects. It can be seen that the temperature range in which point defects exist is 1150-1400 ℃; the nucleation temperature range of the point micro-defects is 950-1150 ℃; the nucleation temperature range of the bulk micro-defects is 600-950 ℃. Therefore, the positions of the temperature measuring device 40 and the regulating device 50 are divided along the nucleation temperature of the point microdefect and the nucleation temperature of the body microdefect in the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30, the temperature between the first temperature measuring instrument 41 and the second temperature measuring instrument 42 is higher than the temperature between the second temperature measuring instrument 42 and the third temperature measuring instrument 43, the height between the first temperature measuring instrument 41 and the second temperature measuring instrument 42 is the height of the point microdefect nucleation temperature path, and the height between the second temperature measuring instrument 42 and the third temperature measuring instrument 43 is the height of the body microdefect nucleation temperature path. Therefore, the height from the first thermometer 41 to the solid-liquid interface is 500-600 mm; the height from the position of the second thermometer 32 to the solid-liquid interface is 700-900 mm; the height from the third position of the thermodetector 33 to the solid-liquid interface is 800-1000 mm. The regulating device 50 comprises a first regulating part 51 and a second regulating part 52, wherein the first regulating part 51 is arranged between the first thermometer 41 and the second thermometer 42 and is positioned at one side of the main chamber 10 of the single crystal furnace, which is close to the cavity, and is used for regulating the temperature of the equal-diameter section between the first thermometer 41 and the second thermometer 42, namely for regulating the density of the point micro-defects in the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30; the second adjusting and controlling part 52 is fixedly arranged between the second thermometer 42 and the third thermometer 43 and is used for adjusting the temperature of the equal-diameter section between the second thermometer 42 and the third thermometer 43, namely for adjusting the density of the bulk micro defects in the equal-diameter section of the silicon single crystal 30.
Further, the first control element 51 and the second control element 52 have the same structure, and may be connected to each other or may be independently arranged, but the first control element 51 and the second control element 52 must be connected to the controller respectively. The first regulating member 51 and the second regulating member 52 both comprise a heating part 53 and a cooling part 54, and the heating part 53 and the cooling part 54 are arranged independently or in communication, and the structure is shown in fig. 2-5.
When the heating part 53 and the cooling part 54 are independently provided, as shown in fig. 2 to 7,

In this case, the heating section 53 is built in the cooling section 53 in order to reduce the transient temperature drop of the silicon single crystal 30, slow the heat radiation rate, and increase the temperature gradient.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 4, the heating part 53 and the cooling part 54 are stacked in the axial direction, and preferably, the heating part 53 is provided at upper and lower ends of the cooling part 54, in order to improve convenience of temperature adjustment between the measured equal diameter sections, in this case, the lower end may be the heating part 53, and the upper end may be the cooling part 54 (the drawing is omitted); the height of the heating part 53 and the height of the cooling part 54 may be determined according to actual conditions, and is not particularly limited.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the heating portions 53 and the cooling portions 54 are axially offset, and the heating portions 53 and the cooling portions 54 are alternately arranged in a crossing manner, that is, the heating portions 53 and the cooling portions 54 are both in a spring-like pipe structure, and the heating portions 53 and the cooling portions 54 are alternately arranged one above the other. Of course, a structure with staggered layers can also be adopted, as shown in fig. 6.
In the above embodiment, all the heating portions 53 may be provided by winding heating wires, or may be provided by winding electromagnetic sheets; the cooling part 53 is formed by winding a cold accumulation sheet or a cold water pipeline.
In operation, when the temperature measured by the first thermometer 41 is less than the standard value, only the heating part 53 is opened and the cooling part 54 is closed; or both the heating section 53 and the cooling section 54 are opened, and the heating temperature of the heating section 53 is higher than the cooling temperature of the cooling section 54, the surface of the silicon single crystal 30 can be heated so that the temperature thereof is kept within the standard temperature range. Accordingly, when the temperature measured by the first thermometer 41 is greater than the standard value, only the cooling part 54 may be opened and the heating part 53 may be closed; or both the heating section 53 and the cooling section 54 are opened and the heating temperature of the heating section 53 is lower than the cooling temperature of the cooling section 54, the surface of the silicon single crystal 30 can be cooled so that the temperature thereof is kept within the standard temperature range. Controlling different positions of all the equal-diameter sections within a standard temperature range, and keeping the same for a certain time to obtain the silicon single crystal with the required bulk micro-defects with different content densities so as to adapt to the standards required by different end products.
When the heating part 53 and the cooling part 54 are arranged to communicate with each other, as shown in fig. 7, the heating part 53 and the cooling part 54 share the same pipe 56, water is introduced into the pipe 56, and when heating is required, hot water is introduced; when cooling is needed, cold water is introduced, and the heating or cooling effect can be obtained.
