A seed crystal is a small piece of single crystal or polycrystal material from which a large crystal of typically the same material is to be grown in a laboratory. Used to replicate material, the use of seed crystal to promote growth avoids the otherwise slow randomness of natural crystal growth and allows manufacture on a scale suitable for industry.
The invention relates to a czochralski method-based crystal growth interface shape detection method and device. The method comprises the steps that: a seed crystal temperature T and an interface electromotive force U at the same time in a crystal growth process are collected, and a T-U curve of the interface electromotive force U changing with the seed crystal temperature T is obtained; the change trend of the shape of a crystal growth interface in real time is judged by observing the deviation between the T-U curve and a reference line, wherein the reference line is a straight line passing through the starting point of the T-U curve, and the slope of the straight line is the Seebeck coefficient of the crystal. The invention also relates to a device used by the method. The detection method provided by the invention can detect the change trend of the shape of the crystal growth interface in real time in the crystal growth process, and can be applied to Czochralski method growth equipment for various single crystals such as lithium niobate, lithiumtantalate, sapphire, yttrium aluminum garnet and the like.
