Title:
METHOD FOR MEASURING TEMPERATURE OF SURFACE OF SINGLE CRYSTAL
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3628823
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simply and correctly detect a surface temperature of a single crystal by obtaining a luminance temperature distribution of a bright ring appearing at a boundary part of a single crystal rod and a molten liquid, and subtracting a disturbing light reflection component obtained from a maximum radiance.
SOLUTION: A luminance of an observation range 16 of a bright ring 13 appearing at a boundary part of a single crystal rod grown in a Chochralski furnace and a molten liquid 12 is observed in an arrow direction (a Y-axis direction) by a two-dimensional CCD infrared camera preferably having a sensitivity to near infrared rays of a wavelength band 700-1100nm. A temperature obtained according to a luminance- temperature conversion formula and a solidifying point temperature of the single crystal (a maximum radiance of the bright ring 13) are compared, and a difference of the temperatures is set as a reflection component by a disturbing light. Supposing that the reflection component is also impressed to a high emissivity part (window part) 15 above the bright ring 13, a correct temperature of the window part 15 is obtained from a luminance from which the reflection component is subtracted. The calculation is carried out to the whole of the window part 15. A temperature distribution is thus obtained and a temperature gradient along the Y axis can be calculated.
