Material and structure of graphite boat
Graphite Boat is a high temperature process equipment, which is usually made of high purity graphite material and treated with SiC (silicon carbide) or TaC (tantalum carbide) coating surface to improve the overall equipment’s oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance and service life.
In industrial manufacturing, graphite boats are usually used as carriers for conventional silicon wafers in coating process production. The structure has many boats with a certain interval. There is a very narrow space between two adjacent boats, and the silicon wafers are placed on both sides of the empty door.
Working principle of graphite boat
Because graphite, the material of the graphite boat, has good conductivity and thermal conductivity, an AC voltage is applied between two adjacent boats to form positive and negative electrodes. When there is a certain air pressure and gas in the chamber, a glow discharge occurs between the two boats. The glow discharge can decompose SiH4 and NH3 gas in the space, form Si and N ions, and combine to form SiNx molecules It is deposited on the surface of silicon wafer to achieve the purpose of coating. As a carrier of solar cell antireflection coating, the structure and size of graphite boat directly affect the conversion efficiency and production efficiency of silicon wafer.
