  • Patent number: 10322938
    Abstract: According to the present invention, there is provided a polysilicon production apparatus including: a horizontal reaction tube having an inlet port through which gaseous raw materials including reactant gases and a reducing gas are supplied, an outlet port through which residual gases exit, a reaction surface with which the gaseous raw materials come into contact, and bottom openings through which molten polysilicon produced by the reactions of the gaseous raw materials is discharged; and first heating means adapted to heat the reaction surface of the horizontal reaction tube. The horizontal reaction tube includes reaction regions consisting of first reaction regions where polysilicon is deposited and second reaction regions where reaction by-products are converted to the reactant gases. The first reaction regions are connected in series with the second reaction regions. Also provided is a polysilicon production method using the polysilicon production apparatus.

  • Patent number: 10301182
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for producing trichlorosilane from tetrachlorosilane in an efficient manner. The apparatus includes an inlet through which reaction raw materials including a metal silicon powder dispersed in liquid tetrachlorosilane enter, a hole through which a gaseous reaction raw material is fed, an outlet through which reaction products including trichlorosilane exit, a tubular reactor in which the reaction raw materials entering through the inlet react with each other during flow, and means for impeding the flow of the fluids to cause collision of the fluids during flow.

  • Patent number: 10196273
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polysilicon production apparatus. The apparatus includes: a horizontal reaction tube positioned in an insulated tube and having an inlet port through which gaseous raw materials including silicon-containing reactant gases and a reducing gas are supplied, an outlet port through which residual gases exit, a reaction surface with which the gaseous raw materials come into contact, and a plurality of bottom openings through which molten polysilicon produced by the reactions of the gaseous raw materials is discharged; one or more internal structures placed in the horizontal reaction tube to provide additional reaction surfaces; and first heating means adapted to heat the reaction surface of the horizontal reaction tube. The present invention also relates to a method for the production of polysilicon using the apparatus.
