Embodiment 1

[0057] Embodiment 1: When the diameter of the sapphire crystal is 47MM, it is necessary to increase the gas flow rate to increase its diameter to 50MM, the data are shown in the table below:

[0058] Current crystal diameter (MM) Gas flow rateL / S Ventilation time (S) Gas diameter after ventilation (MM) 47 1 30 50 47 5 10 50 47 10 - The height of the liquid film decreases, h≤0, at this time the liquid film freezes

[0059] The above data show that when it is necessary to increase the diameter of the sapphire crystal, it is better to control the gas flow rate between 5-8S.

Embodiment 2

[0060] Embodiment 2: When the diameter of the sapphire crystal is 54MM, it is necessary to reduce the gas flow rate to reduce its diameter to 50MM, the data are shown in the table below

[0061] Current crystal diameter (MM) Raw gas flow rate L / S Existing gas flow rate L / S Ventilation time (MIN) Gas diameter after ventilation (MM) 54 5 2 120 50 54 5 1 60 50 54 5 0 37 50

[0062] The above data show that when the sapphire crystal diameter needs to be reduced, its aeration time is longer.

Abstract

The invention relates to a growth method for controlling the diameter of a rod-like sapphire crystal based on a protective atmosphere. An airflow introduction passage is distributed around the upper end of a mold within a thermal field when a crystal is grown, gas flowing in from the airflow introduction passage performs convection heat dissipation on the upper end of the mold, and the heat dissipation strength of the mold is controlled by adjusting the flow rate of the gas so as to adjust the thickness of a liquid film at the solid-liquid interface of the crystal and change the size and shape of a sapphire product; the purpose of changing the diameter of the crystal is fulfilled by controlling the flow rate of the gas scouring the surface of the mold based on the size and shape of the sapphire; when the diameter of the grown crystal needs to be increased, the velocity of the gas flowing into the airflow passage can be increased; when the diameter of the grown crystal needs to be reduced, the velocity of the gas flowing into the airflow passage can be reduced. The growth method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that the shape of the grown crystal is controlled by adopting the method of cooling the mold with gas flow, so that the influence of external disturbance on the shape of the crystal can be overcome in the growth process; in addition, the growth method can also be used for growing a crystal in a specific shape.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a growth method for controlling the diameter of a rod-shaped sapphire crystal based on a protective atmosphere, belonging to the technical field of crystal growth, and in particular to a growth method for controlling the diameter of a rod-shaped sapphire crystal based on a protective atmosphere. Background technique [0002] The guided mode method, also known as the EFG method, is a crystal growth method in which the melt is solidified into crystals by means of a mold. When the raw material is heated by the heater, the raw material melts into a melt in the crucible, and the melt is introduced from the lower end of the mold placed in the melt to the upper end of the mold through capillary action, and forms a liquid film (also known as melt) on the upper surface of the mold. membrane). Under the control of an appropriate temperature gradient, seeding is completed after the seed crystal is in contact with the liquid film on the u...
