Problems solved by technology

Quartz ceramic crucibles have the following fatal weaknesses: 1) Softening and crystallization at high temperatures are prone to safety accidents such as Si leakage due to cracking of the crucible; The service life of conventional Si polycrystalline quartz crucible is about 3 days, and the service life of conventional Si single crystal quartz crucible is less than 200 hours. The limit of the current technological level is less than 400 hours, which cannot meet the needs of CCZ single crystal in the future; 3) In Si material Oxygen is introduced into the medium, which leads to quality problems such as cell attenuation
