Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of analytical chemistry, and particularly relates to a high-precision determination method for trace phosphorus content in trichlorosilane based on cryogenic matrix suppression-high resolution mass spectrometry coupling method. Background Technique
[0002] As the core raw material of polysilicon, during the pretreatment process of trichlorosilane, phosphorus elements mainly exist in the form of PCl3, and there may also be POCl3, PCl5, etc. Even trace residues (such as the requirement for solar grade ≤ 30 ng / g) will affect the electrical properties of polysilicon. Although the current standard GB / T 28654-2018 uses inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for detection, its pretreatment requires steps such as acetonitrile complexation and nitrogen volatilization of the matrix. This pretreatment process takes several hours, and phosphorus elements are easily lost during this volatilization process, resulting in fluctuations in recovery rates. In addition, although alternative methods such as spectrophotometry have low costs, their sensitivity is insufficient (only reaching the mg / L level) and cannot meet the requirements of high-purity detection. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this part is to outline some aspects of the embodiments of the present invention and briefly introduce some preferred embodiments. Simplifications or omissions may be made in this part, as well as in the abstract and title of the specification of this application, to avoid obscuring the purpose of this part, the abstract, and the title, and such simplifications or omissions shall not be used to limit the scope of the present invention.

Use an airtight syringe to inject 1.00 mL of trichlorosilane sample to be tested at a rate of 0.2 mL / s (accurately weigh and record the incremental mass B, accuracy 0.0001 g), and simultaneously start the magnetic stirring system (300±50 rpm) to maintain the homogenization of the solution until the white solid is completely dissolved.

[0054] Perform a synchronous blank according to the above steps, and the difference from the preparation of the test solution is only that the trichlorosilane sample is not added.
[0055] II. Detection Conditions of Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry
[0056] Ionization Parameters: The nebulizer, spray chamber, and torch tube (center tube 1.5 mm Pt) are all made of hydrofluoric acid-resistant materials, RF power: 600~800 W; plasma flow rate 13~16 L·min -1 ; Nebulizer gas flow rate 0.7~1.0 L·min -1 ; Compensation gas flow rate 0.9~1.30 L·min -1 ; Sample lift speed: 15~25 rpm.

[0059] III. Preparation of Standard Curve and Sample Determination
[0060] After selecting trichlorosilane samples that do not detect phosphorus and following the above steps, use this solution as the substrate to prepare standard solutions with different concentration gradients, and measure them using a high-resolution chemical multi-quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (PE5000G). After preparing the standard curve using the standard addition method, measure the phosphorus content in the test solution; use 1.0% nitric acid as the substrate to prepare standard solutions with the same concentration as the trichlorosilane standard solution, measure them using a high-resolution chemical multi-quadrupole inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (PE5000G), and measure the phosphorus content in the test sample blank after preparing the standard curve using the standard addition method, and calculate the concentration of phosphorus element in the sample solution according to the following formula. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0061]
[0062] Among them, A is the amount of trichlorosilane sample (g); B is the weight of 1% hydrofluoric acid (g); C is the dilution factor of 1% HNO3 (g); C S is the concentration of the test solution (ng / g); C0 is the concentration of the blank solution (ng / g).
[0063] IV. Detection Limit
[0064] 1. Select trichlorosilane samples that do not detect phosphorus, and according to Step 1 above, prepare phosphorus standard solutions with concentrations of 1.0 ng / g, 2.0 ng / g, 3.0 ng / g, 5 ng / g, and 20 ng / g. Detect them according to Steps 2 and 3 above to obtain the linear correlation equation and correlation coefficient of the phosphorus element.
[0065] 2. Method detection limit: The standard curve was prepared and the samples were measured with blank samples as the substrate. The instrumental detection limit of phosphorus was obtained by repeating the blank samples N times (N = 10); Trichlorosilane samples without detected phosphorus were selected, and the method detection line of boron was obtained by repeating N times (N = 10) according to the standard curve preparation and sample measurement methods. The correlation coefficient, linear equation, instrumental detection limit of the calibration curve of phosphorus, and the detection line of the method are shown in Table 3 below. The calibration curve of phosphorus is as Figure 1 shown.
[0066] Table 3 Linear equation, instrumental detection limit and detection line of the method
[0067] Example 2
[0068] I. Precision and accuracy tests
[0069] 1. The trichlorosilane samples 1#, 2#, and 3# with average P contents of 2.89 ng / g, 5.82 ng / g, and 11.76 ng / g respectively were measured in parallel 6 times according to the method in Example 1. The test results are shown in Table 4.
[0070] Table 4 Precision and accuracy of the method for P test results in trichlorosilane
[0071]
[0072] As can be seen from Table 4: The relative standard deviation RSD value of the measured values of phosphorus in the trichlorosilane samples 1#, 2#, and 3# for 6 consecutive measurements ≤ 10%. The precision of this method can meet the requirements of detection.
[0073] II. Spike recovery
[0074] In the test solution 1 of trichlorosilane 1# in Example 2, phosphorus standard solutions of 2 ng / g, 5 ng / g, and 10 ng / g were added respectively during the solution preparation process; The method in Example 1 was used, and the test results are shown in Table 5.
[0075] Table 5 Determination results of spike recovery of phosphorus element
[0076]
[0077] As can be seen from Table 5: The spike recovery of the actual samples of phosphorus element is between 95~105%. This method meets the test requirements.
[0078] Comparative Example 1
[0079] Six trichlorosilane samples with a phosphorus content of 5.82 μg / kg were prepared at room temperature according to the method in Example 1, and were denoted as A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, and A6 respectively, and were measured under the detection conditions of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The difference from Example 2 is that 0~5 °C was changed to room temperature, and the sample was directly added to 1.0% hydrofluoric acid at (22±2 °C). Detection was carried out under the detection conditions of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The detection results of phosphorus in trichlorosilane at room temperature are shown in Table 6.
[0080] Table 6 Detection results of phosphorus in trichlorosilane at room temperature
[0081]
[0082] As can be seen from Table 6 above, the precision of phosphorus in trichlorosilane measured at room temperature (22±2 °C) meets the standard, but the measured content is low.
[0083] Comparative Example 2
[0084] A phosphorus standard solution with a concentration of 1.0 ng / g was prepared by using a trichlorosilane sample without detected phosphorus according to "1. Solution Preparation" in Example 1, and comparative detections were carried out respectively under MS / MS (STD mode) without DRC and MS Shift mode with DRC turned on. (Except for whether DRC is used, others are the same as in the example). By calculation, the Si content in trichlorosilane is as high as 10~15%, and the 30 Si 16 O 1 H⁺ interference signal intensity is equivalent to the spiked level of 10 μg / L. Without DRC: directly detect the m / z = 30.98 region and observe 30 Si 16 O 1 H⁺ and 31 P⁺ overlapping peaks; with DRC turned on: Q1 screens 31 P⁺ (m / z = 30.9738), Q2 introduces O2 (0.6 mL / min) to convert to 31 P 16 O⁺ (m / z = 46.9660), and Q3 detects the product ions. The specific information is shown in Table 7.
[0085] Table 7 Comparison of anti-interference performance before and after using the DRC mode
[0086]
[0087] As shown in Table 7, in the DRC reaction mode, the interference signal drops significantly, 30 Si 16 O 1H⁺ elimination > 99.5% (compared with the non-DRC mode), and the signal-to-noise ratio is increased to more than 100 times (from 1.3:1 to 400:1); the detection technology of using Q1 to screen precursor ions + Q2 collision / reaction + Q3 to screen product ions is adopted, successfully avoiding the interference of complex matrices (such as Cl⁻, F⁻, Si after the hydrolysis of trichlorosilane) 4+ ) interference.
[0088] Under the above mode, continue to use 1 μg / g P standard solution to optimize the O2 flow rate in the tested DRC(O2) mode. Set the O2 flow rates to 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.8 respectively, and measure the response values CPS of P element at different flow rates, such as Figure 2 shown, and select the optimal DRC Nebulizer gas flow value of 0.6 mL / min.
[0089] The present invention proposes a breakthrough solution. The sample is directly dissolved in dilute hydrofluoric acid (0.1~1%) in a low-temperature environment (0~5 °C). The low-temperature environment is used to inhibit the side reaction of trichlorosilane hydrolysis. At the same time, secondary dilution with dilute nitric acid is adopted, and the cascade strategy of using Q1 to screen precursor ions + Q2 collision / reaction + Q3 to screen product ions of a high-resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer PE-5000G is combined for detection technology, realizing the ultra-trace (ppt level) accurate detection of phosphorus element in complex matrices such as trichlorosilane. This method completely abandons vulnerable steps such as acetonitrile complexation and nitrogen volatilization. The pretreatment time is shortened by more than 80%, and the phosphorus recovery rate is increased to 95~105%. Experiments show that the detection limit of phosphorus by this method is as low as 0.02 ng / g, the linear correlation coefficient R² > 0.999, and the interference of complex matrices (such as Cl⁻, F⁻, Si 4 ⁺) is successfully avoided. Compared with the current national standard, while maintaining the detection ability at the ng / g level, this technology significantly reduces the operation complexity and the risk of equipment loss, providing technical guarantee for the real-time quality control of the polysilicon production line.
[0090] The above is only the preferred implementation mode of the present invention. It should be noted that without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and retouches can be made, and these improvements and retouches are also within the protection scope of the present invention.
