Abstract: | A critical survey is given of the research and development studies on the electrodeposition of silicon. Among several systems, three are given particular attention, using inorganic baths with SiO2 or K2SiF6 as the source of silicon respectively, or organic baths. The former two appear capable of development to commercial production. Conceptual designs of a commercial-scale cell for silicon production at temperatures above its melting point, and of a pilot plant for plating silicon from an all-fluoride bath are presented. |
