Abstract

This paper describes a computational and experimental approach to electrodeposition of silicon using a MgF2-CaF2-CaO-Y2O3-SiO2 molten salt electrolyte and a yttria-stabilized zirconia solid oxide membrane at the anode. A secondary and tertiary current density distribution model shows anodic current density between 0.5 and 1 A cm−2 with a fairly even distribution along the anode surface except at the ends of the anodes. Finite element analysis of industrial cell magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) shows electrolyte flow to be 23 times slower compared to a calculated analytical model. The experiments demonstrate formation of highly pure silicon in the melt with particle sizes ranging from a few μm to clusters of 2 ~ 3 mm. Finally, the mechanism of Si formation based on a short thermodynamic analysis was discussed.

利用固体氧化膜-熔盐电解法提取硅的电冶技术
本文介绍了使用 MgF2-CaF2-CaO-Y2O3-SiO2 熔盐电解质和阳极钇稳定氧化锆固体氧化物膜进行硅电沉积的计算和实验方法。二级和三级电流密度分布模型显示阳极电流密度在 0.5 至 1 A cm-2 之间,除阳极两端外,沿阳极表面分布相当均匀。对工业电池磁流体动力学(MHD)的有限元分析表明,电解液流动速度比计算分析模型慢 23 倍。实验证明在熔体中形成了高纯度的硅,其颗粒大小从几微米到 2 ~ 3 毫米不等。最后,根据简短的热力学分析讨论了硅的形成机制。
