Career Guidance Skills working with machinery and specialised equipment S8.4 - operating machinery for the extraction and processing of raw materials S8.4.0 - operating machinery for the extraction and processing of raw materials Produce semiconductor crystals
Description
Load raw semiconductor materials, such as polysilicon, into furnace. The resulting lake of melted silicon is then spun in a crucible and a silicon seed crystal is put into it while spinning in the opposite direction. When the melted polysilicon is allowed to cool, the seed crystal is slowly withdrawn. The result is a single semiconductor crystal with a diameter of approximately 200 millimeters.
