چکیده

We report on the Czochralski method for single silicon crystal growth and discuss heat and mass transfer and defect formation in the crystal. A re ector was used for separation of the heating and cooling areas in the furnace enabling us to speed up crystal growth. The melt ow to stabilize the temperature distribution in a crucible was controlled using transverse magnetic elds in a large-scale silicon Czochralski furnace. The setup allows for changes in important parameters of point defect formation to be made, such as vacancies and interstitials, by changing temperature and ow elds in the furnace. A numerical calculation was developed to predict the tendency for growth of a vacancy rich or interstitial rich crystal by estimating the value of the ratio between the growth rate and temperature gradient in the crystals.

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...

Quantitative Analysis of Microsegregation in the Faceted and Non-Faceted Czochralski Silicon Crystal Growth

The microsegregation behaviour of antimony in the faceted and non-faceted Czochralski silicon crystal growth was analyzed quantitatively. Using small melt heights and no rotation, dopant striations of various small spacings were eliminated. Interface demarcation and spreading resistance measurements were used for the segregation analysis. The dopant concentration and its fluctuation during the ...
