Problems solved by technology

[0008] However, similar to gallium-doped single crystal silicon, the equilibrium segregation coefficient of antimony in silicon is also very small (about 0.023), which also leads to poor axial resistivity uniformity of antimony-doped Czochralski single crystal silicon.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for improving the uniformity of axial resistivity of czochralski silicon. The method comprises the steps as follows: (1) melting a polycrystalline silicon raw material and a solid doping agent in an argon atmosphere to obtain stable molten silicon; (2) introducing seed crystals into the stable molten silicon, and conducting constant diameter growth on the crystals after necking and shouldering processes; and (3) during the constant diameter growth period, adding dopant gas with the conductive type opposite to that of the solid doping agent until the growth of the czochralski silicon is fulfilled. According to the method, the type and the usage amount of the dopant gas are convenient to control, various required impurity concentration distributions can be obtained, the utilization rate of the czochralski silicon is increased, and the uniformity of the resistivity of the czochralski silicon is remarkably improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor materials, in particular to a method for improving the axial resistivity uniformity of Czochralski single crystal silicon through a gas phase doping method and the obtained single crystal silicon. Background technique [0002] In the foreseeable future, photovoltaic power generation is the most important renewable energy technology. According to the forecast of the European Photovoltaic Industry Association (EPIA), photovoltaic power generation will meet nearly 10% of the world's electricity demand in 2030. [0003] Current solar cells are mainly manufactured based on boron-doped single crystal silicon materials, but because single crystal silicon contains boron and oxygen at the same time, boron-oxygen complexes will be formed during use, resulting in lower photoelectric conversion efficiency of solar cells. With a drop of more than 10%, the performance of the solar cell is significantly reduced. T...
