The invention relates to field of
polycrystalline silicon ingot casting, in particular to an opening-free heat insulation cage
ingot casting device and method. The device comprises a heat insulation cage, wherein a lateral heater is arranged on the inner side face of the heat insulation cage, a top heater is arranged at the top in the heat insulation cage, and the lateral heater and the top heater are separately controlled by double power supplies. In a melting step, the temperature of an
air cooling DS block is controlled not to be higher than 1400 DEG C. In astep of change from melting to
crystal growth, the temperature of an
air cooling DS block is 1300-1360 DEG C, the temperature of the top heater is 1530-1545 DEG C. In a
crystal growth step, the temperature of the top heater is reduced from 1430 DEG C to 1400 DEG C, and the temperature of the
air cooling DS block is reduced from 1300 DEG C to 1000 DEG C. By the adoption of the opening-free heat insulation cage
ingot casting device, the heat insulation cage cannot be needed to be opened, the subfissurescrap ratio of
cut silicon wafers is reduced by about 15%, the
dislocation number of
silicon ingots in growth is effectively controlled, the
photoelectric conversion efficiency of
silicon wafer products is high, and the stability is good.
