Abstract
The invention relates to a polysilicon rod for FZ applications obtainable by deposition of high-purity silicon from a silicon-containing reaction gas, which has been thermally decomposed or reduced by hydrogen, on a filament rod. The polysilicon rod contains, surrounding the filament rod, an inner zone having but few needle crystals, small in size, an outer zone having a relatively small amount of larger needle crystals, and a smooth transition zone between the inner and outer zones. The polysilicon rods are obtained in high yield and can be refined in one pass in an FZ process.
