Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to polysilicon, in particular to a purification device and a purification method for solar-grade polysilicon. Background technique [0002] The so-called "purification" refers to removing the impurity elements in the matrix through appropriate physical and chemical processes according to the physical and chemical properties of the matrix elements or impurity elements. [0003] For silicon used as a semiconductor material, at present, the most mature and large-scale production process is the Siemens method or the modified Siemens method. This type of process first reduces silica through C to obtain industrial silicon with a purity of at least 98%, and then reacts industrial silicon with HCl at a high temperature of about 1400°C to form SiHCl 3 (or SiCl 4 ), after distillation and purification, use high-purity H in Siemens reactor (or fluidized bed) 2 Reduction can obtain high-purity polysilicon with a purity up to 12N. Up to no...
