The invention belongs to the technical field of
infrared optical material preparation, and particularly relates to a device for preparing polycrystalline
zinc selenide through pure
solid feeding and a growth method, and the device comprises a furnace body, a main
dust collection system and a secondary
dust collection system; the furnace body, the main
dust collection system and the secondary dust
collection system are sequentially communicated in series through an air guide
pipe, and pneumatic ball valves and butterfly valves are arranged on the air guide
pipe at intervals; the furnace body comprises a water-cooling furnace body, a furnace body heat preservation cylinder, a heater, a first vacuum gauge, a
thermocouple, a lower thermal field sleeve, an air inlet
pipe and a
graphite tower; the water-cooling furnace body comprises a water-cooling upper furnace cover and a water-cooling lower furnace cover, and the water-cooling upper furnace cover covers the water-cooling lower furnace cover to jointly form a
closed cavity of the furnace body. Pure
solid zinc and
selenium are adopted as raw materials,
hydrogen selenide highly
toxic gas does not need to be used, and the risk of
toxic gas leakage is reduced from the source; no
hydrogen is generated in the production process, the
occurrence probability of safety accidents is reduced, meanwhile, no
hydrogen selenide cooling device needs to be additionally arranged, and the equipment structure is simplified.
