초록

Recently industry has voiced a need for optimally designing the production process of low-cost, high-quality ingots by improving productivity and reducing production costs with the Czochralski process. Crystalline defect control is important for the production of high-quality ingots. Also oxygen is one of the most important impurities that influence crystalline defects in single crystals. Oxygen is dissolved into the silicon melt from the silica crucible and incorporated into the crystalline a far larger amount than other additives or impurities. Then it is eluted during the cooling process, there by causing various defect. Excessive quantities of oxygen degrade the quality of silicone. However an appropriate amount of oxygen can be beneficial. because it eliminates metallic impurities within the silicone. Therefore, when growing crystals, an attempt should be made not to eliminate oxygen, but to uniformly maintain its concentration. Thus, the control of oxygen concentration is essential for crystalline growth. At present, the control of oxygen concentration is actively being studied based on the interdependence of various factors such as crystal rotation, crucible rotation, argon flow, pressure, magnet position and magnetic strength. However for methods using a magnetic field, the initial investment and operating costs of the equipment affect the wafer pricing. Hence in this study simulations were performed with the purpose of producing low-cost, high-quality ingots through the development of a process to optimize oxygen concentration without the use of magnets and through the following. a process appropriate to the defect-free range was determined by regulating the pulling rate of the crystals.
