  • Publication number: 20250092561
    Abstract: A charging method of silicon material and a preparation method for single crystal are provided. The charging method includes: disposing the first material layer in the crucible; and disposing a second material layer on a side of the first material layer away from a bottom of the crucible, to cover the first material layer during vacuuming. The method for preparing a single crystal, using the silicon charging method described above. The preparation method for single crystal used the charging method for silicon material includes: covering a pot lid on the crucible to define a closed crucible body, and vacuuming the closed crucible body; lifting the closed crucible body into a single crystal furnace, and relieving pressure from the closed crucible body.

  • Publication number: 20250092568
    Abstract: A silicon powder molding method, a silicon block, and their applications in the field of single crystal growth technology are provided. The silicon powder molding method of this application includes the following steps: placing a mold filled with silicon powder under a first pressure P1 condition, maintaining the first pressure condition P1 for a continuous duration of a first pressure time T1, and satisfying 50 MPa?P1?600 MPa, 7 minutes ?T1?15 minutes to obtain a silicon block. A medium applying the first pressure P1 is a liquid. Through pressure control, the molded silicon block is easily removed from the mold without breaking and generating dust. The silicon block is easy to crush when filling and has a controllable particle size distribution after crushing. The silicon block can be directly used for the production of Czochralski grown single crystals, increasing a loading density to 0.18 g/cm3˜0.25 g/cm3.

  • Publication number: 20250092574
    Abstract: A silicon powder forming method, a silicon block, and a use thereof are provided, which relates to technical field of single crystal growth. The silicon powder forming method according to the present application includes: placing a mold filled silicon powder in a condition for first pressure P1 for a first pressure time T1 to obtain a silicon block, wherein the first pressure P1 and the first pressure time T1 satisfy: 50 MPa?P1?600 MPa, 7 min?T1?15 min. By pressure control, the molded silicon block is easily removed from the mold without crushing dust. The silicon block obtained is easy to crush upon charging, and the particle size distribution of the crushed silicon block is easy to control, resulting in raising less. The silicon block obtained can be directly used for production of Czochralski single crystal, and the charge density is increased to 0.18 g/cm3˜0.25 g/cm3.
