Method for feeding granular silicon material, feed pipe used in the method, and method of manufa |
May 11, 1999 |
| In a pulling apparatus operated according to the multi-pulling method or CCZ method, granular silicon material is first fed to a feed pipe from a feeder so as to form stagnation of the granular silicon material in the feed pipe. The feeding of the granular silicon material from the feede |
