As shown in fig. 1, in the prior art, in the process of growing a large-sized semiconductor silicon crystal or growing a solar single crystal silicon, a furnace body 1 generally used in the prior art includes a single crystal silicon rod 11, a draft tube 12, a crucible 13, a silicon melt 14, a heater 15, an exhaust pipe 2, a heat-insulating felt 16 and a vacuum pump 17.

Introducing inert gas argon (Ar) with a certain flow into a furnace body 11 in a negative pressure environment, discharging Si/SiO gas generated by volatilization in silicon liquid in the furnace body 1 and carbon monoxide gas generated by oxidation reaction of a graphite piece out of the single crystal growth furnace body 1 through an exhaust pipe 2, specifically, communicating a vacuum pump 17 on an exhaust port of the furnace body 1, and generating suction force by the vacuum pump 17 to discharge the gas in the furnace body 1 through the exhaust pipe 2. When the mixed gas containing Si/SiO and Ar with certain concentration passes through the thermal field graphite piece, if the temperature of the graphite piece is lower than a certain temperature, the Si/SiO reacts on the surface of the graphite piece and is laminated to form a Si/SiO2 laminated layer with a certain phase, and the laminated layer is not easy to strip and clean after being combined with a graphite substrate. The exhaust pipe 2 is made of graphite, the temperature of the graphite pipe in partial contact with the furnace body 1 is relatively low, Si/SiO steam is laminated on the inner wall of the graphite pipe, the graphite pipe is not easy to clean up during cleaning in the furnace after crystal pulling is finished, after crystal growth is carried out for many times, the inner side of the graphite exhaust pipe 2 is seriously accumulated, the inner diameter of the exhaust pipe 2 is reduced, exhaust and the pressure in the furnace are influenced, the exhaust pipe 2 needs to be replaced regularly, and the cost is increased. Moreover, since the thermal field needs to be disassembled to replace the exhaust pipe 2, other parts are easily worn, and the process conditions are unstable after the thermal field is reassembled.

In order to solve the above problem, as shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides an exhaust apparatus for a thermal field.

The embodiment of the present application takes the furnace body 1 used in the process of growing large-sized semiconductor silicon crystals or growing solar monocrystalline silicon as an example, that is, the exhaust device of the thermal field of the present application is the exhaust device of the furnace body 1.

An exhaust device of a thermal field comprises an exhaust pipe 2, an exhaust hood 3 and an air guide cone 4.

An exhaust pipe 2 for exhausting the gas passing through the thermal field; the exhaust pipe 2 of the embodiment of the application is arranged at the bottom of the furnace body 1, the exhaust port is arranged on the furnace body 1 and communicated with the exhaust pipe 2, and the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2 is the exhaust port of the furnace body 1. The exhaust pipe 2 of the embodiment of the present application is a circular pipe. The cross-section of the exhaust pipe 2 may also be other shapes such as an ellipse or a polygon in other embodiments.

The exhaust hood 3 is covered outside the air inlet end 22 of the exhaust pipe 2, a plurality of air inlets 31 are arranged on the side wall of the exhaust hood 3, and the gas in the thermal field enters the exhaust pipe 2 from the air inlets 31. The exhaust hood 3 is a short pipe with one end closed and the other end opened, and the inner diameter of the exhaust hood 3 is consistent with the shape and the inner diameter of the exhaust pipe 2.

The air guide cone 4 is fixed in the exhaust pipe 2 and is positioned at the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2, the sectional area of the air guide cone 4 is gradually increased from the air inlet end 22 to the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2, a gap is formed between the outer wall of the air guide cone 4 and the inner side wall of the exhaust pipe 2, and air supply flow passes through the air guide cone 4 and then is discharged from the exhaust pipe 2.

As shown in FIG. 2, the arrows are the regions where the Si/SiO2 deposition occurs in the gas flow direction. Generally, the closer to the exhaust port, the more the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 2 near the exhaust port of the furnace body 1 is, the more the physical deposition is, and the analytical reason is that the deposition is likely to occur due to the low temperature. The temperature of the pipe wall is above a certain temperature, and Si/SiO2 deposition of mixed gas does not occur on the pipe wall. The exhaust hood 3 is arranged at the upper end of the exhaust pipe 2, namely the air inlet end 22, the side surface of the exhaust hood 3 is provided with a plurality of air inlets 31, and the tail end of the exhaust pipe 2, namely the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2, is provided with an air guide cone 4; the air guide cone 4 can increase the temperature of the easy deposition part at the tail end of the exhaust pipe 2 and the air flow speed passing through the easy deposition part. Due to the heat transfer of the high-temperature mixed gas and the high-temperature heat radiation of the exhaust hood 3, the temperature of the exhaust cone is higher than that of the exhaust pipe 2 at the same height by hundreds of degrees centigrade, so that the temperature of the part, easy to deposit, of the exhaust pipe 2 can be raised through the heat radiation, and the gas deposition is prevented. When the mixed gas passes through the gas guide cone 4, the flow velocity of the gas is increased, and the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 2 is not easy to be physically deposited. The deposition rate is greatly reduced, and the replacement cycle of the exhaust pipe 2 is prolonged.

The axis of the air guide cone 4 is the same as that of the exhaust pipe 2.

Specifically, the air guide cone 4 is connected with the top of the exhaust hood 3 through a connecting rod 32, the connecting rod 32 is connected with the tip end of the air guide cone 4, the exhaust hood 3 and the exhaust pipe 2 are consistent and coaxial in inner diameter, and the connecting rod 32, the air guide cone 4 and the exhaust hood 3 are coaxially arranged. In other embodiments, the air cone 4 may be secured to the outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2 in other ways. For example, a connection between the air guide cone 4 and the side wall of the exhaust pipe 2. This application is connected through connecting rod 32 and exhaust hood 3's mode, fixes the position of air guide cone 4, can reduce the resistance of the connecting piece that increases between air guide cone 4 and the blast pipe 2 inner wall to the air current, guarantees the speed of air current. The flow rate of the gas increases and the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 2 is not easily physically deposited. The deposition rate is greatly reduced, and the replacement cycle of the exhaust pipe 2 is prolonged.

In order to facilitate the replacement of the air guide cone 4, the connecting rod 32 is detachably connected to the hood top of the exhaust hood 3. In the present embodiment, the connection rod 32 is screwed to the exhaust hood 3.

When each furnace is used for cleaning the thermal field, the exhaust hood 3 and the air guide cone 4 can be taken out, and the exhaust pipe 2 can be inspected and cleaned. The air cone 4 is replaced if necessary. By using the exhaust system, the original process conditions are not influenced, the deposition speed of the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 2 at the tail end is greatly reduced, and when the crystal growth frequency reaches about 100-150 times, the exhaust pipe 2 at the tail end needs to be replaced when the furnace is shut down. The replacement cycle of the exhaust pipe 2 is prolonged by more than 2 times.

Maximum outer diameter of the air cone 4: the inner diameter of the exhaust pipe 2 is (0.5-0.59): 1. in the embodiment of the application, the inner diameter of the exhaust pipe 2 is 100mm, and the height is 400 mm; the maximum outer diameter of the air cone 4 is 60mm and the height is 80 mm.

The air guide cone 4 can be a separate cone or can comprise a cone and a cylinder, the cylinder is positioned at the bottom of the cone, and the outer diameters of the cylinder and the bottom surface of the cone are the same.

The distance from the bottom surface of the air guide cone 4 to the end surface of the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2 is 50-150 mm. In the application, the distance between the bottom surface of the air guide cone 4 and the end surface of the air outlet end 21 of the exhaust pipe 2 is 100 mm.

The number of the air inlets 31 is 4 to 10. And circumferentially and uniformly surrounds the exhaust hood 3, in the embodiment of the present application, the diameter of the exhaust port is 40 mm.

The exhaust hood 3, the connecting rod 32 and the air guide cone 4 are made of graphite.

The above description is only for the specific embodiments of the present application, but the scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present application should be covered within the scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
