Crystal growth :
Growing of single crystal Si from fine granules of Si (EGS) under
controlled doping of impurities at a temperature ≥1000°c
Impurities added to Si are
P type Si – Boron (B2H6 i.e. diborane )
N type Si – phosphorous (PH3 i.e. phosphene)
Doping concentration – 1015 to16 /cm3
CZ Process – Subsystems
Furnace
Crystal pulling system
µp based Control system
