The invention relates to a
crystal-guiding and
impurity-removal device and method for preparing high-purity
alumina polycrystals by virtue of a cold
crucible. The device comprises the cold
crucible, an
electromagnetic induction coil, a double-layer water-cooling
copper pipe and a lifting
system, wherein a high-purity
alumina melt is filled into the cold
crucible; the double-layer water-cooling
copper pipe is connected to the lifting
system which is used for controlling the lifting of the double-layer water-cooling
copper pipe; the double-layer water-cooling copper pipe can be inserted into thehigh-purity
alumina melt in the cold crucible. According to the method, the double-layer water-cooling copper pipe internally carrying circulating cooling water is inserted into the melt, impuritiesin the melt are gradually condensed to the double-layer water-cooling copper pipe in a
directional solidification manner and can be extracted before the melt is completely crystallized and solidifiedin the cold crucible, the purity of alumina can be increased from 99.995% to 99.999%, and high-purity alumina polycrystals do not need to be subjected to crushing and
impurity removal, so that a largequantity of manpower and
material resources are saved, the filling density of the raw materials in a subsequent
single crystal furnace is increased to a certain extent, the quality of
sapphire singlecrystal is improved, and the energy sources are saved.
