Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of polysilicon purification with a physical metallurgy technology and particularly relates to a method for coupling and purifying polysilicon and removing phosphorus and metal with electron beams. The method comprises the following steps of: forming a stable melting pool on the top of a low-phosphorous low-metal high-purity silicon ingot with the electron beams; putting silicon powder to be purified into the melting pool and melting to realize the rapid melting of the powder body to remove volatile phosphorous impurity in the silicon powder; simultaneously carrying out directional ingot pulling so that the low-phosphorus polysilicon grows in a directional solidification way; and removing metal impurities in the polysilicon by utilizing a segregation effect. The invention has the remarkable effects that: because ways of melting silicon powder with the electron beams and carrying out directional solidification are simultaneously adopted, the phosphorus impurity is rapidly removed with the electron beams, and the metal impurities with lower segregation coefficient are removed by the directional solidification way, the purity of the polysilicon is effectively improved, and the using requirement of solar grade silicon is achieved. The invention has the advantages of good purification effect, stable technology, simple process, high production efficiency, energy saving, low cost and suitability for batch production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polysilicon purification by physical metallurgy technology, and particularly relates to a purification method for removing phosphorus and metal impurities in polysilicon by using electron beams. Background technique [0002] As an important part of renewable energy, solar power generation has become one of the main ways to achieve low-carbon goals. However, due to the limitation of the production cost of solar-grade polysilicon, an important raw material for solar cells, the installed capacity of solar power generation in my country is not high. As of 2008 At the end of the year, the total installed capacity of solar cells in the country was only 300MW, which was less than the amount added in a year in Germany. The high manufacturing cost and complex manufacturing process of solar-grade polysilicon are the bottlenecks restricting the development of the photovoltaic industry, which seriously hinders the pro...
