Description
ソース容器S中の粒状多結晶シリコンGPからダストを除去する方法では、粒状多結晶シリコンは、ソース容器から、入口チューブ152を通って、入口チューブと対向する位置に配置された分配器170を有するキャニスタ112の中に運ばれる。粒状多結晶シリコンGPは、長手方向を有する流れとして、キャニスタ112の内部チャンバ120の中に導入される。粒状多結晶シリコンGPは、内部チャンバ120の周りに、分配器170により分散する。
例では、粒状多結晶シリコンが、従来のダスト除去システムと、上述の具体例のダスト除去システムとの双方を用いて、何度もダストが除去された。上述の具体例のダスト除去システムの、1回のダスト除去サイクルの後の多結晶シリコンのダストレベルは、従来のダスト除去システムで3回のサイクルを行った後のダストが除去された多結晶シリコンと同じである。この結果は、図5に示されるダストレベルから証明される。図6は、ダスト除去効率は、従来のダスト除去システムより、上述の具体例のダスト除去システムにおいて、著しく高いことを示す。
Claims (9)
- 粒状多結晶シリコンからダストを除去する方法であって、この方法は、
分配器に対向して配置された入口からキャニスタに粒状多結晶シリコンの流れを導入する工程と、
分配器により半径方向に外方への流れに、流れの方向を変えることにより、粒状多結晶シリコンの流れを分配する工程と、
粒状多結晶シリコンからダストを分離するために、半径方向に外方への流れと接触するように、粒状多結晶シリコンの流れの方向に対向する方向に、気体の反対の流れを導入する工程であって、入口はキャニスタの中に配置されたドーム型のフードに接続されて、入口からダスト出口への粒状多結晶シリコンの流れの逆流を防止する工程と、
ドーム型のフードと入口の下から、キャニスタの中心軸から半径方向に外方への流れの乱流を増加させるために気体のクロスフローを導入する工程とを含む方法。 - 更に、入口の上に配置されたダスト出口を通って真空に引いて、粒状多結晶シリコンからダストを引っ張る工程を含む請求項1に記載の方法。
- ドーム型のフードは、キャニスタの内部と隣り合うキャニスタ開口部より実質的に小さい第1開口部を有する請求項1に記載の方法。
- キャニスタは、キャニスタ開口部より実質的に大きな内部断面積を有する請求項3に記載の方法。
- 分配器は、円錐形状であり、粒状多結晶シリコンの流れを、半径方向に外方に向かう円形パターンに方向を変える請求項1に記載の方法。
- 気体の反対の流れは、分配器の下の位置から導入される請求項1に記載の方法。
- 更に、収集ポートを通ってダストを除去した後に、キャニスタから粒状多結晶シリコンを除去する工程を含む請求項1に記載の方法。
- 更に、ダストを除去した後に、粒状多結晶シリコンを梱包する工程を含む請求項1に記載の方法。
- 更に、キャニスタを通る粒状多結晶シリコンの大きさを調整するために、気体の反対の流れを調整する工程を含む請求項1に記載の方法。
