Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing crystalline silicon by direct electrolysis in an ionic liquid at low temperature, used for solving the existing problem that low temperature cannot be compatible with a crystalline structure in a process of preparing silicon by virtue of an electro-deposition method. The method is characterized in that cubic crystalline silicon can be successfully prepared within a low-temperature range from 90-120 DEG C by taking a low-temperature ionic liquid as an electrolytic solution and liquid metal and alloy thereof as a negative electrode on the basis of the characteristics of the ionic liquid which is low in melting point and not easy to volatilize as well as the dissolution-precipitation balance of silicon in a liquid metal electrode. The method disclosed by the invention has the following characteristics: low operation temperature, stable ionic liquid system, and simple and easy processing steps; the method is subjected to constant-current and constant-voltage control and easy for continuous production, and the method can significantly reduce energy consumption and cost in silicon production. The method disclosed by the invention has a good application prospect in the preparation of a semiconductor material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrolysis and relates to a new method for preparing crystal silicon by low-temperature electrodeposition. Background technique [0002] Silicon is abundant in nature, and because of its excellent chemical stability, optical properties and semiconductor properties, it is widely used in various fields of optoelectronic technology. At present, in the production process of elemental crystal silicon in industry, the steps are to first mix quartz stone or silica (SiO 2 ) to obtain coarse silicon powder by carbothermal reduction, which has serious pollution and high energy consumption. According to different uses, the obtained silicon powder is further purified by Dupont method, Bell method or Siemens method to obtain single crystal silicon or polycrystalline silicon, which includes the preparation, purification, reduction or decomposition of silicon-containing compounds for industrial silicon These processes also ha...
