A. Seidl et al., IN-SITU INVESTIGATION OF OXYGEN DISTRIBUTION AND TRANSPORT IN CZOCHRALSKI SILICON MELTS BY ELECTROCHEMICAL SOLID IONIC SENSORS, Journal of crystal growth, 166(1-4), 1996, pp. 680-684
Electrochemical oxygen sensors were used for the measurement of the ox
ygen concentration and distribution in Czochralski silicon melts. Cruc
ible rotation was found to have a similar impact on the oxygen mass tr
ansport to that already known for heat transport in the melt. Increasi
ng crucible rotation reduces the flux from the crucible wall to the me
lt surface.
