In the zone refining of silicon, an RF-heater is used to remove trace amounts of impuritiesfrom the silicon. If the silicon has the impurity of 10^14 Co (k = 8*10^-6) what is the purityof the crystal after one pass of the zone refiner? After two passes? Plot concentration as afunction of crystal length from 0 to 8ft (total length of the crystal). The width of the moltenzone is 5”.

In the zone refining of silicon, an RF-heater is used to remove trace amounts of impurities
from the silicon. If the silicon has the impurity of 10^14 Co (k = 8*10^-6) what is the purity
of the crystal after one pass of the zone refiner? After two passes? Plot concentration as a
function of crystal length from 0 to 8ft (total length of the crystal). The width of the molten
zone is 5”.
