文摘Based on the experimental results of Chen et al. to use the solar furnace and medium frequency induction furnace to extract boron impurity from metallurgical silicon, we propose a strong radiation catalysis mechanism to explain the difference of reaction rates in these two furnaces.

It is believed the photon catalysis mechanism is unlversall in most of high temperature chemical reactions and looking forward to more evidences for the postulate proposed in this article.
