Thermophysical Properties of Molten Silicon

The results obtained from the present research are summarized as follows.(1)Molecular SimulationVapor-liquid equilibrium simulation were performed using the Stillinger-weber potential with the Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo method。In the low temperature region from about3000 to 3500K，our calculation show the stability of phases and good agreement with several experimental results.On the whole，there is little dependence on the size of the system except near the critical point of silicon：T I D2c文件D2=7500±500K andρI D 2c文件D2=750±100 kgm文件D1-3文件D 1 as determined by the law of rectilinear diameter.(2)Surface Laser-Light scattering MethodIn order to improve and evaluate the accuracy of the surface laser-light scattering(SLLS)The surface tension and viscosity of molten silicon(99.9995%)have been measured in the temperature range from 1685 to 1850K.The obtained surface tension has been correlated by the following@equation：σ=800-0.13(T-1685)mNm I D1-1 I D 1 The oxygen concentration in the sample after the experiment was analyzed.

The accuracy of the measured surface tension is estimated to be ±4.1%. The surface tension and viscosity of molten silicon (99.9995%) have been measured in the temperature range from 1685 to 1850 K. The obtained surface tension has been correlated by the following equation: σ=800-0.13(T-1685) mNmィイD1-1ィエD1 The oxygen concentration in the sample after the experiment was analyzed.
