Abstract: The present application provides a draft tube of crystal growing furnace and the crystal growing furnace. The draft tube comprises an inner tube, an outer tube and a thermal insulating material sandwiched between the inner tube and the outer tube, wherein the inner tube has a thermal resistance lower than that of the outer tube. Accordingly, the outer tube having the higher thermal resistance reduces the heat transfer from the outer tube to the inner tube, thereby the temperature of the inner tube can be reduced, the heat radiation from the ingot surface to the inner tube can be enhanced, and the vertical temperature gradient of the ingot can be increased. At the same time, the temperature of the outer tube increases to reduce the condensation of silica vapor (SiOx) evaporated from the silicon melt surface, thereby impurity formation and dislocation defect caused by the SiOx fallen into the silicon melt can be prevented.

The reflective screen comprises an inner cylinder, an outer cylinder, a thermal insulating material sandwiched between the inner and the outer cylinders, and a thermal insulating pad disposed at the joint of the inner and the outer cylinders. The reflective screen and the monocrystal growth furnace are able to decrease the thermal transmittance from the outer cylinder to the inner cylinder, increase the vertical temperature gradient of the ingot, and prevent or decrease the silicon oxides evaporated from the molten silicon to condensate on the outer cylinder of the reflective screen. Thereby, polycrystalline caused by the oxides falling into the molten silicon can be reduced. Moreover, the thermal power required during the growth of monocrystalline silicon can be reduced because of the reduction of unnecessary thermal transmittance.
