Crystal Temperature Control in the Czochralski Crystal Growth Process
This work proposes a control configuration and a nonlinear multivariable model-based feedback controller for the reduction of thermal gradients inside the crystal in the Czochralski crystal growth process after the crystal radius has reached its final value. Initially, a mathematical model which describes the evolution of the temperature inside the crystal in the radial and axial directions and...
متن کاملNumerical Modeling of Czochralski Silicon Crystal Growth
Modeling of heat transfer is presented for the entire Czochralski Si-growth furnace. The axisymmetric steady-state approach with moving computational grids is used. Melt turbulent flow, inert gas flow, heat transfer in solid parts, and radiative heat transfer in the system are considered. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations written with the Boussinesq approximation and the energy equa...
متن کاملSpiral crystal growth
We numerically study the spiral mode of crystal growth using a theory developed by Burton, Cabrera and Frank using a level set method. This method is novel in that it can handle not only closed curves but open curves as well. We use our method to compute interacting spirals and make estimates of growth rates. We also propose a possible coarsening mechanism for a large number of interacting spir...
متن کاملEFFECT OF SPIRAL DESIGN ON CRYSTAL ORIENTATION DURING SINGLE CRYSTAL GROWTH
Geometrical design of the spiral crystal selector can affect crystal orientation in the final single crystal structure. To achieve a better understanding of conditions associated with the onset of crystal orientation in a spiral crystal selector, temperature field was investigated using three-dimensional finite element method during the process. Different geometries of spiral crystal selec...
متن کاملHydrodynamic Instabilities in Czochralski Process of Crystal Growth
Abstract. This paper deals with axisymmmetry breaking instabilities in Czochralski process of crystal growth. Numerical linear stability analysis was carried out using the axisymmetric bulk flow model. Stability diagrams of critical Grashof numbers Grc and frequencies ωc dependent on aspect ratio α(=height/radius), 0.4 ≤ α ≤ 1.0 and Prandtl number Pr = 0.01 are shown. Computations were carried ...
