Embodiment Construction

[0015] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a state in which a silicon ingot is cut into silicon blocks in the present invention. Fig. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which a silicon block is cut into silicon wafers in the present invention.

[0016] The invention relates to the properties of semiconductor blocks in connection with the manufacture of semiconductor wafers of polycrystalline silicon for the manufacture of solar cells. Furthermore, silicon is generally widely used as a semiconductor, but gallium arsenide alloys, germanium, silicon carbide alloys, and the like can also be applied to the present invention.

[0017] In addition, in the following description, polysilicon will be described as an example.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 1 , a polycrystalline silicon ingot 4 is produced by dicing a polycrystalline silicon ingot 4 while supplying a silicon ingot dicing slurry to a dicing device. And the polycrystalline silicon block 2 is manufactured by cutting the polycrystalline ...

Abstract

The purpose is to provide a silicon block which can be processed into a thin silicon wafer having reduced breakage of a substrate during the manufacture of a solar battery. A method for producing a silicon block by cutting a silicon ingot using a silicon ingot cutting slurry containing abrasive grains and a basic substance, the basic substance being contained in a content of at least 3.5% by mass relative to the total mass of the liquid components of the slurry, the slurry containing an organic amine at a ratio of 0.5 to 5.0 inclusive by mass relative to the mass of the moisture in the liquid components of the slurry, and the slurry having a pH of 12 or higher and being used at a temperature within the range from 65 to 95 DEG C.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a silicon ingot manufacturing method for manufacturing a silicon ingot from a polycrystalline silicon ingot used to manufacture a silicon wafer for a solar cell, and a silicon ingot manufacturing method for manufacturing a silicon wafer using the silicon ingot manufactured by the manufacturing method. Background technique [0002] Polycrystalline silicon wafers used in the manufacture of solar cells are manufactured by manufacturing a rectangular prism-shaped polycrystalline silicon ingot, cutting out a plurality of rectangular prism-shaped polycrystalline silicon blocks from the polycrystalline silicon ingot with a band saw, and then cutting the polycrystalline silicon block into quadrangular shapes. plate. [0003] When a silicon block is cut out from a silicon ingot, if a band saw is used, the surface of the block may be damaged, and if a silicon wafer is manufactured without removing the damaged portion, cracks will...
