Abstract

1311458 Zone-melting SIEMENS AG 15 Nov 1971 [2 Dec 1970] 52915/71 Heading B1S A rod of semiconductor material is made by zone melting e.g. electric induction, by supporting in a substantially vertical position, a tube made from a semiconductor material and closed at one end, which tube contains a filling of crystalline pieces of semiconductor material and/or a doping material, passing a molten zone formed in the tube and contents from one end to the other end of the tube and rotating the parts of the tube and contents lying on opposite sides of the molten zone relative to one another. As shown, in a vacuumtight housing 1, between supports 2 and 3 is clamped a tube 8. Support 2 is connetced to a shaft 19 which is driven by an assembly 16. The suport 2 can be rotated and also displaced axially by 16. In a similar manner support 3 via shaft 18 and drive assembly 17 can be similarly rotated and moved axially. The molten zone 10, is formed by a highfrequency coil 12, which is movable along the tube by adjustable supply line 14. Below zone 10 lies a part 13 of the original tube filled with pieces of semiconductor material. In another embodiment using a tube which contains a cylindrical core of a doping material besides particulate semiconductor material, separate clamping means is provided for the tube and cylindrical core.
