CRUCIBLE FOR MELTING AND CRYSTALLIZING A METAL, A SEMICONDUCTOR, OR A METAL ALLOY, COMPONENT FOR A CRUCIBLE BASE BODY OF A CRUCIBLE, AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING A COMPONENT

摘要

The invention relates to a crucible for melting and crystallizing a metal, a semiconductor material, or a metal alloy, wherein a crucible wall of a crucible base body is made at least partially of a crucible material comprising silicon nitride and silicon dioxide at a weight ratio of between about 1:10 and about 1:1 (Si₃N₄ : SiO₂). The invention further relates to a component for a crucible base body of a crucible for melting and crystallizing a metal, a semiconductor material, or a metal alloy, wherein a component segment is made at least partially of a crucible material comprising silicon nitride and silicon dioxide at a weight ratio of between about 1:10 and about 1:1 (Si₃N₄ : SiO₂), and to a method for producing a component for a crucible base of a crucible for melting and crystallizing a metal, a semiconductor material, or a metal alloy, wherein a component segment is formed at least partially of a crucible material comprising silicon nitride and silicon dioxide at a weight ratio of between about 1:10 and about 1:1 (Si₃N₄ : SiO₂).
