Polysilicon

Filament Production System (813.74 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies offers a complete polysilicon filament production system that closes gaps and tightly manages silicon seed/bridge production. GT’s filament production system improves control and efficiency of filament production, and shortens cycle times and lowers overall process, which reduces the total cost per filament produced.

Float Zone System (737.28 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies’ GT-FZ100 Float zone is widely used by silicon manufacturers for analytical lab sample preparation and quality control used in the production of silicon. The GT-FZ100 plays an important role in assuring material purity, and is an essential tool for solar and semiconductor grade silicon manufacturing.

Polysilicon Processing System (811.6 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies’ polysilicon processing system is a complete solution designed to minimize product contamination in all activities from the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor harvest to final product packaging. GT’s polysilicon processing system includes all the engineering technology and equipment necessary to harvest, transport, process, and package the polysilicon rods produced in GT’s SDR series CVD reactors.

SDR™ CVD Reactors (861.99 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies is the market leader in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactors used in the production of polysilicon. Our SDR™ series of reactors produce more of the polysilicon used in the solar industry than any other competing product. Our CVD reactors are high volume production chambers that utilize the proven Siemens-type process technology to manufacture high quality semiconductor grade or solar grade polysilicon.

Project Support Engineering (708.05 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies offers complete project engineering support services for the design, construction and operation of a low-cost, high volume polysilicon production facility. Supported by experienced employees with more than 250 cumulative years of active involvement in the polysilicon industry, GT’s in-depth services streamline the process from start to finish allowing customers to quickly ramp to volume production and safely operate their polysilicon facility or trichlorosilane (TCS) or silane gas production plant.

TCS Production Technology Solution (970.37 KB)
GT Advanced Technologies offers a complete TCS production technology package that uses hydrochlorination technology to improve the efficiency and lower costs of polysilicon production. Producing TCS via hydrochlorination technology reduces capital investment by 10 to 15 percent and lowers annual operating costs by about 15 percent.

Photovoltaic

DSS™450HP Ingot Casting Furnace (1.03 MB)
GT Advanced Technologies’ DSS450HP furnace sets the standard for cost-effective and reliable multicrystalline ingot growth that helps customers lower the cost of PV manufacturing. The DSS450HP includes a thermally optimized, second-generation, five-sided hot-zone for improved efficiency that can grow significantly faster silicon ingots averaging 52 hours — resulting in 15 percent more throughput. Because the DSS450HP has the same dimensions as the DSS450, current DSS450 users can easily migrate to the DSS450HP with a simple field upgrade kit.

DSS™650 Crystalline Ingot Casting Furnace (1.2 MB)
The DSS™650 is the newest member of GT Advanced Technologies’ industry’s leading family of DSS crystallization systems. The DSS650 sets a new standard for cost-effective, crystalline ingot growth and helps customers achieve greater productivity and lower cost of ownership. The DSS650 produces significantly larger silicon ingots averaging 625 kg — resulting in up to 44 percent more output, while reducing consumable costs and optimizing the wafer slicing process.

Acuity™ Performance Software (821.08 KB)
Production and process data contain vital information that is critical to helping plant managers achieve the optimum efficiency and productivity of crystal growth furnaces. However, production-related data coming from multiple, independent furnaces is of no value unless it can be organized and properly reported allowing production managers to make more informed decisions that lead to improved performance.

DSS™ 450 MonoCast™ (865.58 KB)
The GT Advanced Technologies DSS™450 MonoCast™ crystal growth system is the newest member of GT’s industry leading family of silicon casting furnaces. The DSS450 MonoCast system puts powerful DSS crystal growth technology in the hands of wafer manufacturers allowing them to target new market opportunities that require high quality mono wafers.

Sapphire

ASF™100 (1.46 MB)
The GT Advanced Technologies advanced sapphire furnace (ASF™) is the ideal platform for producing high-quality, large-area sapphire substrates for markets that demand the highest grade sapphire material such as high brightness LEDs and other specialty industrial markets. Based on 40 years of proven sapphire production and crystalline growth process technology, the ASF combines a highly automated, low risk operating environment capable of producing consistently uniform sapphire boules that yield high quality material for a lower cost of ownership.

Service

Partner Program (965.63 KB)
The Productivity Partner Program is a new GT Advanced Technologies service product that builds successful, long term strategic relationships with our DSS customers throughout the entire seasons of ownership. The program is designed as a ”win–win” for both our DSS™ customers and GT Advanced Technologies as we work together to ensure that your DSS furnaces are continuously performing at their optimum productivity level and maximizing the return on your capital investment.
