The present invention relates to the technical field of crushing devices, in particular to a silicon block crushing device, comprising: a container, which provides a storage space for silicon rods to be crushed, and performs a crushing action in the storage space; two pulse electrodes, suspended in the storage space, And the suspension height and the position of the two pulse electrodes in the horizontal plane can be adjusted; there is high-purity water in the container, and the pulse electrodes generate pulse arcs in the high-purity water. The resistivity of high-purity water is ρ, and the unit is MΩ.cm, 16MΩ.cm≤ρ≤ 20MΩ.cm. In the present invention, during the pulse crushing process, the medium in contact with the silicon rod is high-purity water, which avoids the pollution introduced by people or metal materials during the manual or mechanical crushing process, forms a pulsed arc at the electrode, and the arc enters the interior of the polysilicon to form a plasma arc Channels, and finally break the silicon rods into silicon blocks of different sizes. The invention also claims the use method of the silicon block crushing device, as well as a silicon block crushing method and application method.
