摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for the production of crystal layers or bulk crystals of group III nitride or of mixtures of different group III nitrides by means of precipitation, at a first temperature T1 in a first temperature range, from a group-III containing fused metal on a group-III-nitride crystal seed placed in the fused metal or on a foreign substrate placed in the fused metal, with the admixture of nitrogen in the fused metal at a pressure P.With the method a solvent additive is added to the fused metal which increases the conversion rate of group III metal to group III nitride in the fused metal. The fused metal runs through at least one temperature cycle with a first and a second process phase in which cycle the fused metal cools after the first process phase from the first temperature to a second temperature T2 below the first temperature range and at the end of the second process phase is heated from the second temperature back to a temperature within the first temperature range. The described method permits producing group III nitride crystal layers with a thickness of >10 μm, respectively massive crystals with a diameter of >10 mm at dislocation densities of

摘要:
A process and apparatus for producing polycrystalline silicon ingots. A crucible is arranged in a process chamber and filled with solid silicon material. At least one diagonal heater is located laterally offset to and generally above the silicon ingot to be produced. The silicon material is heated to form molten silicon in the crucible, and thereafter cooled down below the solidification temperature of the molten silicon. A temperature profile in the silicon material during the cooling phase is controlled at least partially via the at least one diagonal heater. The apparatus includes a process chamber, a crucible holder, and at least one diagonal heater. The diagonal heater is located laterally with respect to the crucible holder and generally above a polycrystalline silicon ingot to be formed in the crucible. The diagonal heater is stationary with respect to the crucible holder when the process chamber is closed.
摘要:
A crucible is filled with silicon material and is arranged in a process chamber. The silicon material in the crucible is melted and is subsequently cooled below the solidification temperature. During a time period, a plate element that has at least one passage may be arranged over the molten silicon in the crucible, and a gas flow may be directed onto the surface of the molten silicon at least partially via the at least one passage. Alternatively a crucible arrangement includes a crucible and a holding ring arranged on or above a crucible filled with silicon material. Additional silicon material may be received and held above the crucible by the holding ring. During the heating of the silicon material in the crucible and the holding ring, molten silicon is formed in a crucible, which is subsequently cooled below the solidification temperature of the silicon.
