Problems solved by technology

The biggest disadvantage of this method is that it consumes a lot of electricity, and the volatile characteristics of magnesium vapor in the molten state make the magnesium will partly escape and be lost during the synthesis process.
Thereby, the method for synthesizing magnesium germanium by direct reaction of germanium and magnesium needs to be improved

Embodiment 1

[0017] 7.261 grams of germanium powder and 4.862 grams of magnesium powder were uniformly mixed and loaded into reactor 3 and sealed. The reactor 3 is pushed into the synthesis furnace, and the furnace tube 2 is sealed with a quick-fit flange with a sealing ring. Use the mechanical pump in the vacuum system 5 to evacuate the inside of the furnace tube 2 to below 10 Pa, move it into the heating furnace 1, and start to heat up. The temperature control system 4 controls the temperature in the furnace. When the temperature reaches the synthesis temperature of 500° C., the temperature is kept for 3 hours to fully proceed the reaction, and then the heating furnace is removed and cooled naturally. Slowly put in air after cooling down, take out the product, and obtain loose blue-gray magnesium germanide powder.

Embodiment 2

[0019] 14.522 grams of germanium powder and 9.724 grams of magnesium powder were uniformly mixed and loaded into reactor 3 and sealed. The reactor 3 is pushed into the synthesis furnace, and the furnace tube 2 is sealed with a quick-fit flange with a sealing ring. Use the mechanical pump in the vacuum system 5 to evacuate the inside of the furnace tube 2 to below 10 Pa, move it into the heating furnace 1, and start to heat up. The temperature control system 4 controls the temperature in the furnace. When the temperature reaches the synthesis temperature of 550° C., keep it warm for 2 hours to fully proceed the reaction, then remove the heating furnace and let it cool naturally. Slowly put in air after cooling down, take out the product, and obtain loose blue-gray magnesium germanide powder.

Embodiment 3

[0021] 21.783 grams of germanium powder and 14.586 grams of magnesium powder were uniformly mixed and loaded into reactor 3 and sealed. The reactor 3 is pushed into the synthesis furnace, and the furnace tube 2 is sealed with a quick-fit flange with a sealing ring. Use the mechanical pump in the vacuum system 5 to evacuate the inside of the furnace tube 2 to below 10 Pa, move it into the heating furnace 1, and start to heat up. The temperature control system 4 controls the temperature in the furnace. When the temperature reaches the synthesis temperature of 600° C., keep it warm for 1 hour to fully proceed the reaction, then remove the heating furnace and let it cool naturally. Slowly put in air after cooling down, take out the product, and obtain loose blue-gray magnesium germanide powder.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing magnesium germanide. Germanium powder and magnesium powder are uniformly mixed according to the mass ratio of 1 to 2, and filled into a reactor, and the reactor is sealed and pushed into a furnace tube. The furnace tube is vacuumized by a mechanical pump and transferred into a heating furnace, and then temperature rise begins. When the temperature reaches between 500 and 600 DEG C required for synthesis, heat insulation is performed for 1 to 3 hours so as to make the reaction fully performed; and the reactor is naturally cooled and then taken out, and bluish grey magnesium germanide powder is obtained. The magnesium germanide is generated by the germanium powder and the magnesium powder in the sealed reactor, thereby the problem of ratio deviation caused by diffusion losses of magnesium steam is avoided. The conversion ratio is obviously higher than that of a general method; the content of impurities is low; and the purity of products is high. Moreover, the purity of the magnesium germanide has great significance on guaranteeing the purity of germane prepared by taking the magnesium germanide as a raw material. Simultaneously, the method overcomes the defect of large power consumption when the electric furnace is used for heating and fusing germanium and magnesium to prepare the magnesium germanide, and reduces the energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to material preparation technology, in particular to a method for synthesizing magnesium germanium. Background technique [0002] Germane is an important electronic gas with a wide range of uses. With the development of microelectronics industry, solar photovoltaic industry and aerospace industry, the demand for high-purity germane is becoming more and more urgent. Epitaxial growth of high-quality silicon germanium materials requires high-purity germane gas source, the preparation of low-cost and high-efficiency germanium-silicon solar cells requires high-purity germane, and the preparation of various space ray detectors also requires high-purity germane. [0003] Magnesium germanium is one of the main raw materials for preparing germane, which is in the form of blue-gray powder. Magnesium germanium is usually synthesized directly using germanium and magnesium or various inorganic compounds containing germanium and magnesium as ...
