Problems solved by technology

It takes about 8 hours to completely stick out the dirty material once, and 16-20 hours for two times, which greatly prolongs the crystal growth cycle
The scum is generally in the form of flakes, and it is difficult to bond to the equal-diameter parts of the dirty material after being equal in diameter. The efficiency is very low, and the weight of the sticky dirty material is relatively large. loss

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor preparation, in particular to a method for adhering dirty materials in the growth process of germanium crystals, which comprises the following steps: calcining germanium materials; inserting seed crystals into an obtained germanium melt, setting the pulling speed of the first crystal after welding is stable, and carrying out seeding; starting and stopping the second crystal pulling speed in an inching mode, controlling the edge of the dirty material to be separated from the liquid level of the germanium melt, connecting the center area of the dirty material with the germanium melt, carrying out necking down growth, then adjusting the second crystal pulling speed to the first crystal pulling speed, carrying out shouldering, and carrying out crystal growing continuously; when the diameter of the crystal reaches a target diameter, adjusting the pulling speed of the first crystal to the pulling speed of the second crystal, and repeating the above operation until the dross on the surface of the germanium melt is completely stuck, so that the time for sticking out the dirty material is shortened, the weight of the stuck dirtymaterial is small, and the loss of the dirty material caused by processing and purification is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor preparation, in particular to a method for sticking out dirt during germanium crystal growth. Background technique [0002] When germanium single crystals are drawn by Czochralski (CZ method), especially large-diameter single crystals and electrical-grade low-dislocation germanium single crystals, a large amount of germanium raw materials needs to be added. After the germanium material is melted, the trace scum on the surface of the zone melting germanium ingot, the trace amount of germanium oxide on the surface of the redrawing material, and the second phase compound introduced by the presence of trace oxygen in the Ar atmosphere in the single crystal furnace, in the rotating melting In the body, all will float and gather in the center of the melt. During the crystal pulling process, new crystal nuclei are inevitably generated to form polycrystals (crystal transformation). The scum is the...
