Description

本発明は、シリコン単結晶引上げに用いる石英ガラスルツボ及びその製造方法、さらに詳しくは、単結晶化の歩留まりが高くシリコン単結晶を引き上げることができるシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボ及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a silica glass crucible used for pulling a silicon single crystal and a method for manufacturing the same, and more particularly, to a quartz glass crucible for pulling a silicon single crystal that has a high yield of single crystallization and can pull a silicon single crystal, and a method for manufacturing the same. .

従来、シリコン単結晶の製造には、いわゆるチョクラルスキー法(CZ法)と呼ばれる方法が広く採用されている。このCZ法は、石英ガラスで製造したルツボ内でシリコン多結晶を溶融し、このシリコン融液にシリコン単結晶の種結晶を浸漬し、ルツボを回転させながら種結晶を徐々に引上げ、シリコン単結晶を種結晶を核として成長させる方法である。   Conventionally, a so-called Czochralski method (CZ method) has been widely used for the production of silicon single crystals. In this CZ method, a silicon polycrystal is melted in a crucible made of quartz glass, a silicon single crystal seed crystal is immersed in the silicon melt, and the seed crystal is gradually pulled up while rotating the crucible. Is grown using seed crystals as nuclei.

上記CZ法で使用する石英ガラスルツボはシリコンウェーハが大型化するにしたがって1400℃以上のシリコン融液に長時間接触するようになってきたが、その内表面がシリコン融液と反応し、内表面の浅い層に結晶化が起こり、褐色のリング状のクリストバライト(以下ブラウンリングという)が現れることが起こる。前記ブラウンリング内はクリストバライト層がないか又はあっても大変薄い層であるが、操業時間の経過とともにブラウンリングはその面積を拡大し、互いに融合しながら成長を続け、遂にはその中心部が浸食され、不規則なガラス溶出面となる。このガラス溶出面が出現すると、シリコン単結晶に転位が起こり易くなり、単結晶引上げの歩留まりに支障をきたすことになる。特に、200mm以上の大口径のウェーハを製造するシリコン単結晶を成長させるにはCZ法の操業を100時間を超えて行う必要があり、前記ガラス溶出面の出現が顕著となる。   The quartz glass crucible used in the CZ method has come into contact with a silicon melt at 1400 ° C. or higher for a long time as the silicon wafer becomes larger. Crystallization occurs in the shallow layer, and a brown ring-shaped cristobalite (hereinafter referred to as brown ring) appears. The brown ring has a cristobalite layer with or without a cristobalite layer, but as the operating time elapses, the brown ring expands its area and continues to grow while fusing with each other. And an irregular glass elution surface. When this glass elution surface appears, dislocations are likely to occur in the silicon single crystal, which hinders the yield of single crystal pulling. In particular, in order to grow a silicon single crystal for producing a wafer having a large diameter of 200 mm or more, it is necessary to carry out the operation of the CZ method for more than 100 hours, and the appearance of the glass elution surface becomes remarkable.

上記ブラウンリングは、ガラス表面の微細な傷や原料粉の溶け残りである結晶質残留部分、ガラス構造の欠陥などを核として発生すると考えられており、その数を減らすには、ガラスの表面状態を良好に保ったり、結晶質残留成分をなくすために溶融時間を高温、長時間化したり、或いは特許文献1に示すように内表面を形成する原料粉として非晶質である合成粉を使用すればよい。しかしながら、ルツボが更に大型になりシリコン単結晶の引上げ時間が長くなることで更なる改善が求められている。また、その一方で上記方法でブラウンリングの発生数を減らすと、単結晶の引上げ時にシリコン融液の表面が振動し易くなり、作業性を悪化させる欠点があった。   The above brown ring is thought to be caused by fine scratches on the glass surface, crystalline residue that is unmelted raw material powder, defects in the glass structure, etc. In order to maintain good quality, to eliminate residual crystalline components, the melting time is increased to a long time, or as shown in Patent Document 1, an amorphous synthetic powder is used as a raw material powder for forming the inner surface. That's fine. However, further improvement is required because the crucible becomes larger and the pulling time of the silicon single crystal becomes longer. On the other hand, if the number of occurrences of brown rings is reduced by the above method, the surface of the silicon melt tends to vibrate when the single crystal is pulled up, and there is a drawback that workability is deteriorated.

上記欠点を解消するため、本発明者は先に天然石英ガラスからなる不透明な外層、その内側に少なくとも石英ガラスからなる透明層を有する石英ガラスルツボにおいて、シリコン単結晶引上げの使用後に、シリコン融液の初期湯面位置から特定の範囲までと残湯位置上特定の範囲までに観測されるブラウンリングの個数の比が特定の割合になるシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボを提案した(特許文献2)。前記シリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボは、例えば天然シリカ粉を回転する型に導入し、ルツボ形状に成形したのち、アーク電極によりルツボ状成形体の内部キャビティーを高温ガス雰囲気にして少なくとも部分的に溶融ガラス化して不透明なルツボ基体を形成し、次いで高純度の天然シリカ粉または天然合成混合シリカを供給し、溶融ガラス化して天然石英ガラスまたは天然合成混合石英ガラスからなる透明層を初期湯面位置から特定の範囲に、さらに合成石英ガラスからなる透明層を残湯位置上の特定の範囲に形成するなどその製造方法に少し煩雑なところがあり、より簡便な方法で優れた単結晶化率を達成できるシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボの出現が熱望されていた。
特許第2811290号及び特許第2933404号 特願2003−141702
In order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present inventor previously made a silicon melt after using a silicon single crystal pulling in a quartz glass crucible having an opaque outer layer made of natural quartz glass and a transparent layer made of at least quartz glass inside. Proposed a quartz glass crucible for pulling a silicon single crystal in which the ratio of the number of brown rings observed from the initial molten metal surface position to a specific range and a specific range on the remaining molten metal position is a specific ratio (Patent Document 2) ). The silica glass crucible for pulling up the silicon single crystal is, for example, introduced by introducing natural silica powder into a rotating mold and formed into a crucible shape, and then at least partially making the internal cavity of the crucible-shaped body with a high temperature gas atmosphere by an arc electrode. An opaque crucible substrate is formed by melting into vitrified glass, and then a high-purity natural silica powder or natural synthetic mixed silica is supplied to form a transparent layer made of natural quartz glass or natural synthetic mixed quartz glass. There is a little complicated place in the manufacturing method, such as forming a transparent layer made of synthetic quartz glass in a specific range on the remaining hot water position from a position to a specific range, and an excellent single crystallization rate can be achieved with a simpler method. The advent of a quartz glass crucible for pulling a silicon single crystal that can be achieved has been eagerly desired.
Patent No. 2811290 and Patent No. 2933404 Japanese Patent Application No. 2003-141702

こうした現状に鑑み、本発明者は鋭意研究を続けた結果、天然シリカ粉を溶融して形成した不透明な外層と、合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層を有する石英ガラスルツボにおいて、前記合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層が内表面から0.8mmまでの深さにおいて平均アルミニウム濃度が1〜20ppm、平均OH基濃度が150〜300ppmとなるように調整することで、ブラウンリングの発生が抑えられ、その結果、長時間操業してもガラス溶出面の出現が少なくシリコン単結晶の歩留りが良くなること、更に、ブラウンリングが少なくてもシリコン融液表面の振動が抑えられることを見出して、本発明を完成したものである。すなわち、   In view of such a current situation, the present inventor has conducted intensive research, and as a result, in a quartz glass crucible having an opaque outer layer formed by melting natural silica powder and a transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass, By adjusting the transparent inner layer to have an average aluminum concentration of 1 to 20 ppm and an average OH group concentration of 150 to 300 ppm at a depth of 0.8 mm from the inner surface, the occurrence of brown rings can be suppressed, As a result, even when operated for a long time, the appearance of the glass elution surface is small, the yield of the silicon single crystal is improved, and furthermore, the vibration of the surface of the silicon melt can be suppressed even if the brown ring is small. It has been completed. That is,

本発明は、ブラウンリングの発生が少なく、しかもシリコン融液表面の振動がなく、シリコン単結晶を高歩留まりで引上げることができるシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボを提供することを目的とする。   An object of the present invention is to provide a quartz glass crucible for pulling up a silicon single crystal that can generate a silicon single crystal with a high yield, with little occurrence of Brownian rings and no vibration of the surface of the silicon melt.

また、本発明は、上記シリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボの製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing the silica glass crucible for pulling up the silicon single crystal.

上記目的を達成する本発明は、天然シリカ粉を溶融して形成した不透明な外層と、合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層を有する石英ガラスルツボにおいて、前記合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層が内表面から0.8mmまでの深さにおいて1〜20ppmの平均アルミニウム濃度と150〜300ppmの平均OH基濃度を有することを特徴とするシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボ及びその製造方法に係る。   To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a quartz glass crucible having an opaque outer layer formed by melting natural silica powder and a transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass, wherein the transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass has an inner surface. The present invention relates to a quartz glass crucible for pulling up a silicon single crystal, characterized by having an average aluminum concentration of 1 to 20 ppm and an average OH group concentration of 150 to 300 ppm at a depth of 1 to 0.8 mm.

本発明のシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボは、上述のとおり合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層を有し、その厚さは0.8mm以上で石英ガラスルツボの肉厚の35%以下が好ましい。そして、前記合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層の内表面から0.8mmまでの深さにおいて平均アルミニウム濃度が1〜20ppm、好ましくは3〜8ppmで、かつ平均OH基濃度が150〜300ppmに調整されているルツボである。前記合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層の厚さが0.8mm未満では、シリコン単結晶引上げ中に石英ガラスがシリコン融液に溶け出し、不透明な石英ガラス層が現れ単結晶化率を著しく低下させてしまう。また、合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層の厚さをルツボの肉厚の35%を超える厚さに形成することは、ルツボ製造の生産性・経済性の観点から好ましくない。合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層が前記範囲の平均アルミニウム濃度及び平均OH基濃度を有することでルツボの使用後に発生するブラウンリングの個数が0.1〜0.8個/cmの範囲となり、シリコン単結晶の歩留りをよくする。その上、合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層とシリコン融液の濡れ特性が増し、シリコン融液表面の振動が抑えられ、高歩留まりでシリコン単結晶を引上げることができる。ブラウンリングの個数を0.1個/cm未満とすることは困難であり、またブラウンリングの個数が0.8個/cmを超えるとシリコン単結晶に転位が多く起こり単結晶化率が低下する。 The silica glass crucible for pulling a silicon single crystal of the present invention has a transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass as described above, and the thickness is preferably 0.8 mm or more and 35% or less of the thickness of the quartz glass crucible. The average aluminum concentration is adjusted to 1 to 20 ppm, preferably 3 to 8 ppm, and the average OH group concentration is adjusted to 150 to 300 ppm at a depth of 0.8 mm from the inner surface of the transparent inner layer made of the synthetic quartz glass. It is a crucible. If the thickness of the transparent inner layer made of the synthetic quartz glass is less than 0.8 mm, the quartz glass dissolves into the silicon melt during the pulling of the silicon single crystal, and an opaque quartz glass layer appears to significantly reduce the single crystallization rate. End up. Moreover, it is not preferable from the viewpoint of productivity and economic efficiency of crucible production that the thickness of the transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass is more than 35% of the thickness of the crucible. The transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass has an average aluminum concentration and an average OH group concentration in the above ranges, so that the number of brown rings generated after use of the crucible is in the range of 0.1 to 0.8 / cm 2 , Improve the yield of silicon single crystal. Moreover, the wettability of the transparent inner layer made of synthetic quartz glass and the silicon melt is increased, the vibration of the silicon melt surface is suppressed, and the silicon single crystal can be pulled up with a high yield. It is difficult to make the number of brown rings less than 0.1 pieces / cm 2 , and when the number of brown rings exceeds 0.8 pieces / cm 2 , many dislocations occur in the silicon single crystal and the single crystallization rate is low. descend.

本発明で使用する合成シリカ粉としては、Na、K、Li、Ti、Fe、Cuなどの不純物濃度が0.1ppm以下であるのがよい。不純物濃度が前記範囲にあることでシリコン単結晶への不純物の悪影響はほとんどない。また、前記範囲の平均アルミニウム濃度を有する合成シリカ粉は、シリカ粉にアルミニウム粉を混合する方法、ケイ素化合物とアルミニウム化合物との均一溶液を加水分解、乾燥、焼成する方法又はシリカ粉をアルミニウム化合物の溶液に浸漬したのち、乾燥し、シリカ粉にアルミニウム化合物の被膜を形成する方法などで製造されるが、特にケイ素化合物とアルミニウム化合物との均一溶液を加水分解、乾燥、焼成する方法は、アルミニウムが均一に含有されて好ましい。   The synthetic silica powder used in the present invention preferably has an impurity concentration of Na, K, Li, Ti, Fe, Cu or the like of 0.1 ppm or less. When the impurity concentration is in the above range, there is almost no adverse effect of impurities on the silicon single crystal. The synthetic silica powder having an average aluminum concentration in the above range is a method of mixing aluminum powder with silica powder, a method of hydrolyzing, drying and firing a uniform solution of a silicon compound and an aluminum compound, or silica powder of an aluminum compound. After being immersed in the solution, it is dried and manufactured by a method of forming a film of an aluminum compound on silica powder. In particular, the method of hydrolyzing, drying and firing a uniform solution of a silicon compound and an aluminum compound is the It is preferably contained uniformly.

上記ブラウンリングの個数は、ルツボの使用後の内表面に現れる数をカウントするものであるが、ルツボのシリコン融液との接触時間が長く、ブラウンリングが成長し易い残湯付近においてはブラウンリングが融合する場合があるので、ルツボの同一高さの水平方向において観測される単独のブラウンリングの平均径から1個当たりの面積を計算し、融合部分の面積を前記1個当たりの面積で割った値を求め、その値と前記単独のブラウンリングの個数の総数とをルツボの内表面積で割った値を単位面積(cm)当りの個数とする。 The number of brown rings is the number that appears on the inner surface of the crucible after use. However, the length of contact with the silicon melt of the crucible is long and the brown ring is near the remaining hot water where the brown ring is likely to grow. Therefore, the area per piece is calculated from the average diameter of a single brown ring observed in the horizontal direction at the same height of the crucible, and the area of the fused portion is divided by the area per piece. A value obtained by dividing the value and the total number of single brown rings by the inner surface area of the crucible is defined as the number per unit area (cm 2 ).

また、上記平均アルミニウム濃度は、石英ガラスルツボの透明な内層から試験片を切出しICP発光分光分析法で測定した値であり、また、平均OH基濃度は、ルツボの内表面の深さ方向1.0mmまでをD.M. DODD and D.B.FRASER,Optical determination of OH in fused silica, Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 37(1966)p.3911に記載の測定法で測定した値である。   The average aluminum concentration is a value obtained by cutting a test piece from a transparent inner layer of a quartz glass crucible and measuring it by ICP emission spectroscopic analysis, and the average OH group concentration is 1. in the depth direction of the inner surface of the crucible. D. up to 0 mm. M.M. DODD and D.D. B. FRASER, Optical determination of OH in fused silica, Journal of Applied Physics, Vol. 37 (1966) p. It is a value measured by the measurement method described in 3911.

さらに、本発明の石英ガラスルツボは、アルミニウムを含有する合成石英ガラスからなる透明層と天然石英ガラスからなる不透明な外層との間に天然石英ガラスからなる透明層を設けることができる。この天然石英ガラスからなる透明層を設けることで内層と外層との剥離が少なくなる上に、ルツボの変形も少なくなる。前記天然石英ガラスからなる透明層の厚さは0.4〜5.0mm、好ましくは0.7〜4.0mmの範囲がよい。   Furthermore, the quartz glass crucible of the present invention can provide a transparent layer made of natural quartz glass between a transparent layer made of synthetic quartz glass containing aluminum and an opaque outer layer made of natural quartz glass. By providing this transparent layer made of natural quartz glass, peeling between the inner layer and the outer layer is reduced, and deformation of the crucible is reduced. The transparent layer made of natural quartz glass has a thickness of 0.4 to 5.0 mm, preferably 0.7 to 4.0 mm.

本発明のシリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボは、高温での長時間操業においてもルツボの内表面に発生するブラウンリングの個数が少なく、かつシリコン融液表面の振動もなくシリコン単結晶を高歩留まりで引き上げることができる。しかも、前記シリコン単結晶引上げ用石英ガラスルツボは、平均アルミニウム濃度が1〜20ppmの合成シリカ粉を用いて形成した合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層の形成中に水蒸気を導入し、合成石英ガラスからなる透明な内層が内表面から0.8mmまでの深さにおいて平均アルミニウム濃度が1〜20ppm、
平均OH基濃度が150〜300ppmとなるように調整するという簡便な方法で製造できる。
The silica glass crucible for pulling a silicon single crystal of the present invention has a high yield of silicon single crystal with a small number of brown rings generated on the inner surface of the crucible even during long-time operation at high temperatures and without vibration of the silicon melt surface. Can be pulled up. In addition, the silica glass crucible for pulling up the silicon single crystal introduces water vapor during the formation of a transparent inner layer made of synthetic silica glass formed using synthetic silica powder having an average aluminum concentration of 1 to 20 ppm, The transparent inner layer has an average aluminum concentration of 1 to 20 ppm at a depth of 0.8 mm from the inner surface,
