Abstract

The zone-melting of a rod 6 of silicon in a chamber 1 using an induction coil 10 is carried out in an atmosphere comprising highly purified hydrogen fed at subatmospheric pressure from a cylinder 13. The hydrogen may be at least 99.9% pure. It may be admixed with hydrogen phosphide or boron hydride (as dopant) or argon, helium or nitrogen (as protective gas). The partial pressure of the protective gas is preferably more than twice the partial pressure of the hydrogen, except that the partial pressure of nitrogen is preferably not more than 100 mm of Hg. The total gas pressure may be 30-600 mm of Hg. The rod may be first zone-melted in a high vacuum and then in pure hydrogen.
