Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of new energy technologies, and particularly to a temperature equalizing plate that can be used in a diffusion furnace for manufacturing solar panels and is used to match a silicon carbide wafer boat. Background Art
[0002] In the annealing process during semiconductor manufacturing, an annealing furnace is used. Its principle is to use a resistance coil to surround a quartz tube. After being energized, the coil heats the quartz tube to generate a constant temperature area. When the temperature reaches the temperature required by the process, the silicon wafer is sent into the constant temperature area inside the quartz tube through a silicon carbide wafer boat placed on a robotic arm for annealing to meet the process requirements. Therefore, it is very important to keep the temperature of the silicon carbide wafer boat uniform and stable. In the prior art, the temperature equalizing plate used to carry the silicon carbide wafer boat often cracks due to thermal stress at high temperatures, thus having a very serious adverse impact on the entire annealing process and affecting the normal production process. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, this application proposes a temperature equalizing plate for matching a silicon carbide wafer boat that can not only eliminate thermal stress but also ensure the load-bearing capacity.
[0004] A temperature equalizing plate for matching a silicon carbide wafer boat in this application includes a main board with a thickness of H and a side length of L, and satisfies H:L = 1:(14~16), 10mm ≤ H ≤ 16mm;
[0005] At least one through hole is symmetrically opened on the main board. The opening area of the main board is s, and the total area of the main board is S, and satisfies s:S = 1:(3~5);
[0006] At least two slits extending to the edge of the main board are symmetrically opened at the center of the main board. The width of the slit is 2~3mm, and the slit penetrates through the thickness of the main board;
[0007] A support part for supporting the silicon carbide wafer boat is further provided on the upper surface of the main board.
[0008] Further, the through hole of the temperature equalizing plate in this application includes a large round hole located at the geometric center of the main board.
[0009] Further, the through hole of the temperature equalizing plate in this application further includes four rectangular holes evenly distributed around the large round hole.
[0010] Further, the through hole of the temperature equalizing plate in this application further includes eight small round holes evenly distributed around the large round hole.
[0011] Further, the slit of the temperature equalizing plate in this application extends along the edge of the rectangular hole to the edge of the main board.
[0012] Further, at the edge where the main board of the heat pipe in this application is connected to the slit, there is a concave-convex edge, and at the edge of the main board that is not connected to the slit, there is a notch.
[0013] Further, the support part of the heat pipe in this application is at least four symmetrically distributed pins.
[0014] Further, the support part of the heat pipe in this application is a "hui"-shaped convex platform arranged along the four peripheries of the heat pipe.
[0015] Advantages of this application:
[0016] For the heat pipe used to match the silicon carbide crystal boat in this application, on the one hand, through a reasonable length-to-thickness ratio and the ratio of the opening area, the overall structure of the heat pipe is more concise while ensuring the bearing capacity. On the other hand, by symmetrically opening slits extending to the edge of the main board on the heat pipe, thermal stress is eliminated.
[0017] In addition, the structure of a large round hole at the geometric center, four rectangular holes evenly distributed around the large round hole, and eight small round holes evenly distributed around the large round hole, combined with the concave-convex edge and notch design around the heat pipe, is also conducive to stress release, making the overall structure of the heat pipe used to match the silicon carbide crystal boat more stable. The heat pipe described in this application can bear a load of 60 kg at a high temperature of 800 °C, fully meeting the usage requirements. Description of the drawings
