CZOCHRALSKI PROCESS OF SILICON WAFERS

Czochralski process is named in conjunction with a Polish scientist called Jan Czochralski, who invented the development in 1916. In the Czochralski process, a seed crystal is dipped into a crucible of molten silicon and withdrawn slowly, pulling a cylindrical single crystal as the silicon crystallizes on the seed. Czochralski process used to produce high volume of Silicon single crystals.

@wouterdepo

since the seed crystal is monocrystalline it is a lot stronger than normal silicon, so it can handle the weight

[wouterdepo]

Doesn't the seed crystal seems to be very small in diameter ?

If you consider the weight of several 100kgs it has to carry.

Or is it just me?
