In a major breakthrough for China's semiconductor industry, the Yinchuan Economic and Technological Development Zone has successfully developed the country's first 14-inch single-crystal silicon rod, marking a significant step forward in domestic production of large-sized monocrystalline silicon. This achievement addresses a long-standing gap in the local market and positions China to compete more effectively on the global stage.
On July 2nd, Fuleode Company, a subsidiary of FerroTec (China) Co., Ltd. — a Japanese firm specializing in magnetic fluid technology — announced that it had successfully created the first 14-inch single-crystal silicon rod in China. This milestone not only showcases the company’s technical capabilities but also highlights the growing strength of Chinese enterprises in high-tech manufacturing.
Monocrystalline silicon is the foundation of most electronic components, with over 98% of materials used in electronics relying on this critical material. However, until now, China lacked the capability to produce large-size single-crystal silicon rods independently. Fuleode began experimenting with 14-inch crystal growth as early as 2013, and through a combination of original innovation, independent research, technology absorption, and collaboration between industry, academia, and research institutions, it finally succeeded in producing the first 14-inch rod in the country.
Since then, the company has continued to drive technological advancements, including innovations such as secondary charging for single crystals, high-efficiency polysilicon ingot casting, N-type single-crystal silicon rod drawing, and advanced methods for preparing high-purity quartz sand. These developments have not only enhanced the company’s production efficiency but also contributed to broader industrial upgrades and modernization efforts.
The Yinchuan Economic and Technological Development Zone has played a crucial role in fostering innovation by implementing its "three adjustments, two transfers, and one demonstration" strategy. The zone has prioritized scientific research and independent innovation, introducing a range of policies and incentives to support technological development and attract top talent. In 2013 alone, the zone allocated 32.25 million yuan in rewards to companies, significantly boosting their motivation and investment in R&D.
This success story reflects the growing confidence and capabilities of Chinese enterprises in high-tech industries, driven by both government support and corporate innovation. As the sector continues to evolve, the Yinchuan Development Zone is setting an example for other regions aiming to build a stronger, more competitive industrial base. (Reporter: Zhao Lei)
