Abstract:
      Under industrial condition, silicon scraps were purified through directional solidification induced by electron beam for recycling. There were two crystal morphologies (monocrystalline and columnar) in silicon ingot. Compared with polycrystalline region, distribution of electrical properties such as resistivity and minority carrier life time in monocrystalline region was more uniform, and content of iron impurities was also more uniform with an average value of mass fraction of 0.000031%. Appearance of monocrystalline crystals during directional solidification induced by electron beam can not only ensure uniform composition of metal impurities in ingot purification area, but also further promote concentration of impurities towards top of ingot, and content of iron impurities on top of ingot is up to 0.101%. Therefore, it is possible to use electron beam to induce monocrystalline growth, which will promote removal of metal impurity and provide a way for regeneration of recycled silicon.
