Abstract

The application provides a pre-treatment method of cast single crystal silicon, characterized by comprising the following steps: cutting a cast single crystal silicon ingot into a cast single crystal silicon wafer by using a mortar line cutting device; removing oil stains, metal particles and other impurities on the surface of the cast single crystal silicon wafer by using an acid solution; depositing a layer of phosphor-silicon glass on the surface of the silicon wafer and performing annealing treatment; and removing the surface reaction layer and the adsorbed impurities of the treated silicon wafer by using a solvent.
