Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the process of making semiconductor devices, it is necessary to use diamond wires to cut silicon wafers, and a lot of waste silicon mud will inevitably be produced during cutting. The silicon mud contains a large amount of silicon, which not only loses valuable crystalline silicon, but also affects huge pollution of the environment

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of high-purity silicon smelting, in particular to a method for smelting high-purity silicon by using waste silicon mud. Background technique [0002] High-purity silicon refers to a silicon material with a relatively high silicon content. High-purity single crystal silicon can be used to make semiconductors, integrated circuits, photovoltaic cells, etc., and a small amount of Group IIIA elements are doped into single crystal silicon to form p-type silicon Semiconductor; doped with trace amounts of Group VA elements to form n-type semiconductors. P-type semiconductors and n-type semiconductors are combined to form a p-n junction, which can be made into a solar cell, which converts radiation energy into electrical energy. It is a promising material in the development of energy. In addition, widely used diodes, triodes, thyristors, field effect transistors and various integrated circuits (including chips and CPUs in pe...
