A method for manufacturing a semiconductor for a solar cell and other applications is disclosed. A separating layer may be introduced into a mold having an interior defining a shape of a solar cell or other substantially planer object. A silicon nitride coating may be applied onto one or more interior surfaces of the mold. A planar capillary space is formed along the conductive layer. The silicon is melted under an ultra-low oxygen content cover atmosphere and allowed to flow into the capillary space. The melted silicon is then cooled within the capillary space such that the silicon forms one part of a P-N junction in the body of the semiconductor.

The disclosure provides a method for growing a gallium oxide single crystal by casting and a semiconductor device containing the gallium oxide single crystal. The method includes: 1) heating a solid gallium oxide to complete melting, cooling to a melting point of the gallium oxide, and maintaining a melt state for at least 30 min; and 2) conducting gradient cooling on a gallium oxide melt obtained in step 1) until a solid gallium oxide single crystal is obtained.
