I am working on solar cells and want to do actual practical research in them. for that I need to manipulate the doping percentages and elements in it. for this I must be able to melt the silicon and doping elements. I want to make a small secure induction furnace to melt 50ml volume. The power consumption must not be high enough to burn my house wiring and not more than 5000 watts power. This project is meant to be done at home in my private lab. I need the circuit. I would be doing this in a clean environment (clean room grade A) or even vacuum cabinet surrounding the furnace. so fuel consuming furnace are not good idea. since the volume is low i think 3-5k watts should be enough. the temperatures it could attain is 1600 degree centigrade adjustable. could anyone help me? the cells are going to be bio processed to make antireflective coating. this would help to increase effeciency.
