The fluidized bed chemical vapor deposition （FBCVD） method is a most promising alternative to conventional ones, but the homogeneous reaction of silane in FBCVD results in unwanted formation of fines, which will affect the product qualityand output.

This article mainly reviews the technological development on FBCVD of polycrystalline silicon and the research status for solving the above problems.

By controlling a very short catalyst residence time （1-3 s） in the Downer, only part of Fe oxides can be reduced to form Fe nano particles （NPs） available for the growth of SWCNTs. The percentage of unreduced Fe oxides increased and the yield of SWCNTs decreased accordingly with the increase of catalyst feeding rate in Downer. SWCNTs were preferentially grown on the catalyst surface and inhibited the sintering of the Fe crystallites which would be formed thereafter in the downstream TFB, evidenced by TEM, Raman and TGA. The coupled Downer-turbulent fluidized-bed reactor technology allowed higher selectivity and higher production rate of SWCNTs as compared to TFB alone.展开更多
