A process that used chemical vapor deposition (CVD) from the mixture of trichlorosilane (SiHCl3) and silicon tetrachloride (SiCl4) for the production of polysilicon granules in a fluidized bed reactor (FBR) was studied. The effects of the reaction temperature (800-1200 degrees C), molar ratio of H-2 to SiHCl3 and SiCl4, and SiHCl3 fraction in the mixture of SiHCl3 and SiCl4 (0-100%) were studied. The reactant gas was analyzed by a gas chromatography (GC). The surface morphology of the product particles were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. Well grown product particles were obtained. The reaction temperature and reactant composition significantly affected the Si yield and the amount of produced SiCl4 per kg deposited Si. The results showed that zero net by-production of SiCl4 could be realized by using the mixture of SiHCl3 and SiCl4 as reactant in a FBR while a satisfactory Si yield was remained. A suitable reaction condition for this was 1200 degrees C and molar ratio H-2/SiHCl3/SiCl4 was 16/0.5/0.5. The corresponding one-through SiHCl3 conversion and Si yield were 21.1% and 9.6%, respectively, which were higher than the improved Siemens technology using pure SiHCl3. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.
