Problems solved by technology

Electron beams are used in metallurgical smelting to melt and purify materials. The known invention patent application number is 200810011631.8. Electron beams are used to smelt and remove impurity phosphorus in polycrystalline silicon. However, during the electron beam smelting process, the electron beams continue to have a large beam current Melting polysilicon, in this process, not only the amount of silicon evaporation is relatively large, but also a large amount of silicon vapor generated by continuous smelting with a large beam will hinder the volatilization of phosphorus impurities, causing the phosphorus impurities to flow back, which is not conducive to the removal of impurities

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of purification of polysilicon by a physical metallurgical technology. A method for purifying the polysilicon by adopting an electron beam to carry out fractionated smelting comprises the following steps: firstly preparing a material; placing a cleaned and dried silicon material into an electronic beam smelting furnace; carrying out preprocessing; carrying out water cooling on a crucible and preheating an electronic gun; and finally purifying, i.e. melting and smelting for a certain time by adopting the electron beam with a small beam current of 200 to 300mA, then reducing the beam current to zero, smelting the polysilicon for a certain time by the small beam current of 200 to 300mA and stopping the beam current after a silicon ingot is completely darkened and silicon steam is condensed back into a molten pool, repeatedly repeating the operation of smelting small beam current and stopping beam current, and finally carrying out cooling and condensing to obtain a polysilicon ingot with low phosphorus content. The method has the obvious effects that due to the adoption of the technology of carrying out electro beam fractionated smelting, the evaporation loss of silicon is reduced; the method has good purifying effect, stable technology, simple process, short period and high production efficiency; energy is saved; and consumption is reduced.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of purifying polysilicon by physical metallurgy technology, and particularly relates to a method for melting and removing impurity phosphorus in polysilicon by electron beam. Background technique [0002] In a society where energy is scarce and low-carbon environmental protection is advocated, solar energy, as an environmentally friendly new energy, has great application value. Solar cells can convert solar energy into electrical energy, and solar-grade polysilicon materials are important raw materials for solar cells. Therefore, the preparation technology of solar-grade polysilicon materials is particularly important.
