Problems solved by technology

However, this method has high equipment costs, high crystal stress, high dislocation density, and complicated crystal growth process, which is not conducive to growing large-sized, low-dislocation single crystals.
For example, the growth method of indium antimonide single crystal disclosed in the patent (CN 109280978A) needs to be protected by flowing high-purity hydrogen during the crystal growth process, and there is a hidden danger of hydrogen leakage. It is necessary to design an explosion-proof single crystal furnace, and the equipment cost is high; Seeding, necking, shouldering, equal diameter, finishing and other processes grow single crystals, which are easy to form twins; in addition, this method has strict requirements on shoulder angles, and requires extremely high process experience for crystal pullers

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method and device of an indium antimonide single crystal, and relates to the field of crystal preparation. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding indium antimonide seed crystals, indium antimonide polycrystals and diboron trioxide into a closed container; carrying out crystal growth by adopting a vertical Bridgman method (VB method); in this way, the crystals begin to grow from the bottom of the melt and are not interfered by dross, automation of crystal growth can be achieved by controlling a heating program, and compared with a Cz method, the method is low in requirement for technological experience of crystal pulling workers, high in finished product success rate, low in dislocation density and stable and controllable in quality. By arranging a heating area with independent temperature control above the closed container, the heat preservation effect can be achieved, materials can reach the set temperature more accurately, and the overall mass distribution of obtained crystals is more uniform.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of crystal preparation, in particular to a method for preparing an indium antimonide single crystal and a device thereof. Background technique [0002] Indium antimonide (InSb) is the material with the narrowest bandgap and the largest mobility among III-V compound semiconductors. It has high quantum efficiency in the 3μm-5μm band and is widely used in infrared detectors and Hall devices. . In order to adapt to the trend of large-scale development of InSb infrared focal plane array devices, large-size, low-dislocation InSb single crystals have attracted more and more attention. [0003] At present, the main growth method of indium antimonide single crystal is the Czochralski (Czochralski) method, also known as the Cz method. The growth process of the Cz method is to heat and melt the raw materials in a crucible under the protection of high-purity gas, insert the seed crystal into the melt through a lifting rod, and ...
