Polycrystalline silicon ingotting furnace and ingotting method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a polycrystalline silicon ingotting furnace and an ingotting method thereof, relating to the technical field of equipment for preparing uniform polycrystalline silicon with a certain structure. The ingotting furnace comprises a furnace body insulating layer, a top heater, a quartz crucible, a heat-dissipation platform, a heat-dissipation window and a bottom heater. The bottom heater is located on the lower side of the heat-dissipation platform. The bottom heater and the top heater are controlled by independent transformers, and are adjusted separately. The rate power of the bottom heater is 5kw-100kw. The bottom heater is started in the heating and smelting period during a running process of the ingotting furnace, and is stopped completely during a crystallization process of silicon liquid, so that the temperature of silicon material at the bottom of the crucible quickly rises by the smelting of the silicon material, thereby reducing the smelting duration of the silicon material and improving the productivity of the ingotting furnace.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of preparing a uniform polysilicon device with a certain structure. Background technique [0002] At present, the photovoltaic industry is developing rapidly. Due to its high production capacity and stable quality of cast polycrystalline and quasi-monocrystalline silicon ingots, polycrystalline ingot furnaces are widely used in the photovoltaic power generation industry. During the polycrystalline ingot casting, the primary silicon material is carried in a quartz crucible, and after five processes of heating, melting, directional crystallization, annealing, and cooling in the ingot casting furnace, the high-purity polycrystalline silicon material is finally grown into a material for the production of solar cells. of polycrystalline silicon ingots. [0003] There are many new structures of thermal field heaters and bottom cooling methods in the existing polycrystalline ingot casting furnace. When designing t...

Problems solved by technology

The recrystallization layer separates the silicon material in the crucible into upper and lower parts, the upper part is liquid silicon, and the lower part is massive solid silicon. The surface of the upper part of the silicon liquid layer forms a mirror effect, which acts on the radiant light of the heater and reflects the radiation radiated by the heater upward. The thermal energy causes the silicon liquid to heat up slowly, and the temperature rise of the silicon material at the bottom of the crucible is also greatly restricted.
