In the method for preparing single crystal superalloy test bars by using a Ni—W heterogeneous seed crystal, on the premise of ensuring that the single crystal superalloy has the required orientation, by reusing the seed crystal, it is achieved that the trouble caused by the need of preparing a new seed crystal when a single crystal superalloy is produced by the seed crystal method every time is avoided, and the production cost is significantly reduced. In the present disclosure, the formation of the stray grains in mushy zone could be avoided by using a Ni—W heterogeneous seed crystal without mushy zone and a built-in corundum tube.

For manufacturing a monocrystal, a monocrystal pulling-up device controls pressure within a flow straightening cylinder to be from 33331 Pa to 79993 Pa and a flow velocity of inert gas in the cylinder to be from 0.06 m/sec to 0.31 m/sec (0.005 to 0.056 SL/min·cm2) during a post-addition-pre-growth period. By controlling the flow velocity of the inert gas to be in the above-described range during the post-addition-pre-growth period, the inert gas flows smoothly even when the pressure within the cylinder is relatively high. Evaporation of a volatile dopant because of a reverse flow of the inert gas can be restrained. The volatile dopant can be prevented from adhering to the flow straightening cylinder in an amorphous state, and the volatile dopant can be prevented from dropping into a melt or sticking on the melt while growing a crystal. Foulings can be easily removed.

A crystal-clamping fixture 30 is suspended by a pulling up mechanism 1 through the use of wires. The crystal-clamping fixture 30 includes a box 31 and a plurality of holding rods 32. The box 31 has two openings formed on its top and bottom sides. The reduced portion 2a, the enlarged portion 2b and the necked portion 2c formed beneath the seed crystal 5 are allowed to penetrate through the two openings during the pulling up operation. A plurality of "S" shaped slots 31a, 31b are formed on the lateral sides of the box 31. The holding rods 32 capable of rotating along the path of the "S" shaped slots 31a, 31b are horizontally disposed within the box 31 by inserting their two end portions through the "S" shaped slots 31a, 31b. The holding rods kept restrained at the upper ends of the "S" shaped slots are pushed out by the conic surface formed at the upper part of the enlarged portion 2b and rotate and descend to reach the lower ends of the "S" shaped slots. At the time the crystal-clamping fixture 30 is directed to ascend a small distance, then the holding rods 32 contact the conic surface formed between the enlarged portion 2b and the necked portion 2c to clamp the single crystal 2.

A puller (22) above the melt extracts a crystal (8) upwardly out of the melt surface into a laterally turnable airlock chamber (5) An uncoupling device (7) provided between the crystal (8) and the puller permits the severance of the crystal (8) from the puller. The device (7) is formed by a coupling ring (10) connected to the pull shaft (22) and having a longitudinal slot (9) which cooperates with a crystal holder which is provided with a mushroom-shaped head part (11), and by an airlock ring (14) held by the cover plate (15) of the airlock chamber (5). Airlock gates (13, 13') journaled on the airlock ring (14) pivot about horizontal axes (35, 35') from a horizontal locking position to a vertical open position and vice versa, their end faces (16, 16') forming an opening (17) in the locking position, thereby encompassing the shaft (19) of the seed holder (12) to lock it in the plane of the airlock ring (14).
摘要:
In order to improve a process for growing crystals from a molten zone which is heated and to which a source material is supplied which is melted and deposited in crystalline form on a substrate from the molten zone, such that dimensions of the substrate along an interface between the substrate and the molten zone are dependent to a lesser extent on dimensions of the source material supplied to the molten zone, it is suggested that the molten zone be mechanically stabilized by a wall member which forms a boundary of the molten zone and is essentially immovable relative to the molten zone, a base member which forms a lower boundary of the molten zone and is movable relative to the wall member and a meniscus arranged between the base member and the wall member.
摘要:
A method of producing single crystals is characterized in that in withdrawing a semiconductor or dielectric material from its molten state while allowing it to grow into a single crystal solid, a die heated to a temperature higher than the solidifying point of the melt is disposed at the melt withdrawing outlet and the single crystal is withdrawn through the die.

Process for the preparation of metallic or semimetallic shaped elements, particularly of silicon, in a molten coating bath.Into a confinement crucible is placed the molten basic semimetallic metallic material and a molten coating bath which is inert with respect to said material and whose melting temperature is below that of the material. Into the material is introduced at least one frame-like part, made from a refractory material whose thickness for wetting is greater with respect to the metallic or semimetallic material than with respect to the molten coating bath. A metallic or semimetallic material shaped element is then produced on the frame by the slow displacement of all or part thereof. This shaped element is solidified in the liquid coating bath and finally the complete frame and the solidified shaped element are removed from the bath.
摘要:
An apparatus and method pulling a shaped crystalline fiber of a given crystal-forming material from a liquid reservoir of the material. The apparatus includes a vessel in which the liquid material is maintained as a liquid reservoir at a temperature above the melting point or crystal-forming temperature of the material. A die is provided having an inner-tubular surface which includes a crystal shaping portion which is tapered. The liquid flows from the reservoir through the die so that the liquid flows from the narrow end of the shaping portion to the wide end of the shaping portion. The temperature of the liquid crystal growth material is selectively lowered at the top end of the die to form crystalline material which is continually pulled from the crystal-liquid interface. The apparatus is operated to maintain the crystal-liquid interface within the crystal shaping portion of the die to provide accurate shaping of the crystal by the tubular surface and to maintain accurate alignment of the crystal fiber with the die.
