| 20090321996 | Silicon Electro-Magnetic Casting Apparatus and Operation Method of the Same - An operation method of an electro-magnetic casting apparatus for silicon takes into account: the measurements of the surface temperature of the ingot and the temperature of the heating furnace; the control of the induction frequency for the electro-magnetic casting; the control of the power source output of the heating means based on the measured surface temperature of the solidified silicon; and the control of the induction frequency of induction power source based on the measured induction frequency of the induction coil power source; thus, it becomes possible to secure remarkable safety and productivity in the continuous casting of the silicon ingot, thereby enabling to facilitate the production of a semiconductor polycrystal silicon ingot, which is applied to safety operation widely. | 12-31-2009 |
