Describe Details

Rod-shaped monocrystalline silicon materials are produced by growing crystals from polysilicon via the Czochralski (CZ) method or Float-Zone (FZ) method. The term "silicon rod" generally refers to monocrystalline silicon ingots. If the rod features a polycrystalline structure, it is normally called a polysilicon chunk.

Monocrystalline silicon ingots are categorized by diameter into 2-inch, 3-inch, 4-inch, 5-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, 12-inch and 18-inch specifications. At present, 8-inch and 12-inch ingots dominate the market.

As the raw material for silicon wafer manufacturing, monocrystalline silicon ingots exert a direct impact on wafer quality in terms of overall quality and intrinsic defect density. Parameters including carbon and oxygen concentrations, resistivity uniformity and internal defect levels of silicon wafers are all determined during the crystal growth process of silicon ingots.

Crystal growth technology thus ranks among the core key technologies for semiconductor materials. Only a handful of major enterprises have mastered crystal growth technologies for ingots exceeding 12 inches, and China is still in the catch-up phase in this field.
