    摘要: A seed crystal holder used in a crystal pulling apparatus operated in accordance with the Czochralski method. In the seed crystal holder, a heat-resistant cushioning material is provided between the surface of a seed crystal and the contact surface of claws of the holder or between a cutaway surface of the seed crystal and a contact surface of an insert of the holder. The heat-resistant cushioning material is selected from the group consisting of carbon fiber felt, glass fiber felt, metallic fiber felt, or selected from materials that cause plastic deformation such as Al.

    摘要: A method and an apparatus for pulling a single crystal are disclosed. A first neck portion, a convex portion, and a second neck portion are formed in this order under a seed crystal held by a seed chuck, and subsequent to the second neck portion, a single crystal having a diameter-expanding portion and a straight cylindrical portion is formed. Lifting holders are brought around and in proximity to the second neck portion when the second neck portion rises to a predetermined position during the pulling by the seed chuck. The single crystal and the lifting holders are moved relative to each other in the vertical direction to thereby bring the convex portion into contact with the lifting holders in a resting manner, so that part of a load borne by the seed chuck is shifted to the lifting holders. Subsequently, the pulling operation is performed by the lifting holders. Accordingly, a single crystal having a larger weight can be pulled safely while maintaining high quality.

    摘要: Arranged is a covering plate which closes and opens an entrance of a valve container between a lower chamber and an upper chamber, the lower chamber containing a crucible and the upper chamber containing a wire to pull a single crystal. The covering plate is contained in a circle-shaped space portion within a wall by closing and opening means. The covering plate closes the entrance so that an isolation valve is protected. Since at the time of opening the entrance the covering plate is contained within the wall without contacting with the wall, the fall of dusts produced by peeling off of a film deposited on the wall can be prevented. Furthermore, the covering plate is contained in a circle-shaped space portion without exposing the front and back surfaces thereof to the air.

    摘要: An improvement is proposed in the single crystal growing process of semiconductor silicon in the Czochralski process to obtain a silicon single crystal having a greatly decreased number of crystal defects without affecting the productivity. The improvement can be accomplished by an adequate arrangement of the cooling zone of the single crystal growing puller to have such a temperature distribution that the time taken by the growing single crystal to pass through the temperature range from the melting point of silicon to 1200 °C is from 50 minutes to 200 minutes and the time taken by the growing single crystal to pass through the temperature range from 1200 °C to 1000 °C does not exceed 130 minutes.
