    摘要: A method by which a silicon wafer is prevented from increasing boron concentration near the surface and difference in the boron concentration does not arise between the surface of the annealed wafer and the silicon bulk to eliminate boron contamination in the silicon wafer caused by an annealing treatment is provided. The method includes, when annealing a silicon wafer having a surface on which a native oxide film has formed and boron of environmental origin or from chemical treatment prior to annealing has deposited, steps of carrying out temperature heat-up in a mixed gas atmosphere having a mixing ratio of hydrogen gas to inert gas of 5% to 100% so as to remove the boron-containing native oxide film, followed by annealing in an inert gas atmosphere.

    摘要: A simple and inexpensive method and apparatus for producing crystalline silicon comprising the steps of melting silicon in a mold, then cooling the bottom of the mold is cooled to create a positive temperature gradient from the bottom of the mold upward, thereby causing the molten silicon to crystallize from the inner bottom of the mold upward so that the solid-liquid phase boundary, separating the crystallized silicon from the molten silicon, moves upward as the molten silicon crystallizes. As the silicon crystallizes, an inert gas is blown onto the surface of the molten silicon from a position above the surface of the molten silicon, thereby vibrating the surface of the molten silicon in such a manner that cavities are formed in the surface of the molten silicon.

    摘要: A method for producing a silicon ingot having a directional solidification structure comprising the steps of: placing a silicon raw material into a crucible of a melting device constructed by mounting a chill plate on an underfloor heater, mounting a crucible with a large cross-sectional area on the chill plate, providing an overhead heater over the crucible, and surrounding the circumference of the crucible with a heat insulator; heat-melting the silicon raw material by flowing an electric current through the underfloor heater and overhead heater; chilling the bottom of the crucible by halting the electric current through the underfloor heater after the silicon raw material has been completely melted to form a molten silicon; chilling the bottom of the crucible by flowing an inert gas through the chill plate; and intermittently or continuously lowering the temperature of the overhead heater by intermittently or continuously decreasing the electric current through the overhead heater, and an apparatus for producing the silicon ingot.
