Embodiment 1

[0058] Please refer to the attached figure 2 , figure 2 The flowchart of the method for determining the solid-liquid transition time point of crystal growth provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention is shown. The method for determining the solid-liquid transition time point of crystal growth provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention is applicable to the heat exchange crystal growth method. The solid-liquid conversion time point refers to the time point when the solid material starts to melt or the surface of the liquid raw material starts to crystallize during the crystal growth cycle. Of course, this time point is a time point in the crystal growth cycle.

Abstract

The invention provides a solid-liquid conversion time point determination method for crystal growth. The method comprises the following steps: (11) acquiring images of materials in a crucible in real time; (12) determining boundary shape features corresponding to adjacent two material images; (13) computing areas, i.e., a first feature area and a second feature area of the boundary shape features of the adjacent two material images; (14) judging whether the absolute value of difference between the first feature area and the second feature area is greater than a set value or not; and (15) when the absolute value of the difference is greater than the set value, taking a shoot time point corresponding to the material image, which is shot later, of the adjacent two material images as a solid-liquid conversion time point. The invention also provides a solid-liquid conversion time point determination device for crystal growth as well as a crystal growth system and method. According to the scheme, the problem in the background art that the accuracy of determining subjects to experience, melt sloshing is caused and failed observation is easy due to the fact that the solid-liquid conversion time point is determined through artificial observation can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of crystal growth, and more specifically, to a method and device for determining the solid-liquid conversion time point of crystal growth. The present invention also relates to a crystal growth system including the device, and a crystal using the above method growing method. Background technique [0002] There are many methods for growing crystals (such as sapphire) from bottom to top, such as heat exchange method, crucible descent method, temperature gradient method and so on. Among them, the heat exchange method has become the main method for crystal growth due to its advantages of high degree of automation, stable thermal field, long life, and low dependence on labor. [0003] Please refer to the attached figure 1 , figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of a typical crystal growth system using heat exchange method for crystal growth. figure 1 The crystal growth system shown includes a furnace bod...
