“…The gas-phase SiO subsequently reacted with the graphite fixed inside the furnace to form CO. Then, this cycle of reactions was repeated, and silicon carbide was also produced during the reaction [25]. During the reaction, the sources of oxygen included the dissolution of the quartz crucible containing molten Si and the absorption of CO into the melt [26], the sources of carbon were the graphite components in the furnace [27][28].…”

Carbon etching and silicide deposition are common phenomena in furnaces during photovoltaic crystal pulling processes,both of which decrease Graphite components in the furnace service life and pollute silicon-based materials. SiC as one of the major silicides and carbon etching products whose generation mechanism is of practical significance. Therefore, this study took discarded graphite infusion cylinders with significantly different apparent morphologies as the research objects. Through systematic characterization and thermodynamic analysis, we investigated the physical and chemical reactions that occurred during the generation of SiC in various regions of a discarded graphite infusion cylinder. We derived the SiC delamination, infiltration, and phagocytosis mechanism to explain the formation of the apparent morphological characteristics of the waste graphite infusion cylinder. We also described Generation mechanism of SiC in graphite infusion cylinder during photovoltaic crystal pulling process to provide a theoretical basis for prolonging the service life of the graphite infusion cylinder and treating waste graphite infusion cylinder .

In the last decade, numerous research efforts have been focused on the use of wavelength-converting materials to extend the spectral response of existing solar cell technologies. In this regard, lanthanide-based nanophosphors are promising candidates with their emissions ranging from the UV to near-infrared. Nevertheless, new challenges are raised for the engineering, design, and synthesis of lanthanide phosphors with a high absorption cross section to match the wavelengths of solar cells spectral sensitivity. One creative approach involves the coordination of organic ligands at the nanophosphors surface to broaden their excitation wavelength range and yield ultrabright highly efficient hybrid phosphors. Herein, the state-of-the-art of the sensitization of inorganic lanthanide-based phosphors with organic antennas that could be used to enhance the performance of a-Si and c-Si solar cells through downshifting, upconversion, and downconversion mechanisms is briefly reviewed.
