摘要:
Method of setting a stable melting zone in a semiconductor crystalline rod during crucible-free zone melting thereof, by means of a single-winding induction heating coil having an inner diameter smaller than the diameter of a portion of the rod being fed to the melting zone which includes performing the crucible-free zone melting in an argon atmosphere at an overpressure in vicinity of at least 1.5 ata and maximally 6 ata, and setting the outer melting-zone height at a value of between 15 and 23 mm for a diameter of the recrystallized rod portion within a range of 30 to 50 mm, at a value of between 18 and 26 mm for a diameter of the recrystallized rod portion within a range of 50 to 75 mm and at a limiting value of 32 mm for a rod diameter greater than 75 mm.
摘要:
A U-shaped carrier member formed out of a bent silicon starting rod which is uniformly heatable by means of electric current and which is substantially neither elongated nor contracted relative to the starting rod. A process for the preparation of such carrier member is provided.
