摘要:
Plate-like samples each having as a principal plane thereof a cross section perpendicular to the long axis direction of a polycrystalline silicon rod grown by the deposition using a chemical vapor deposition method are sampled; an X-ray diffraction measurement is performed omnidirectionally in the plane of each of the plate-like samples thus sampled; and when none of the plate-like samples has any X-ray diffraction peak with a diffraction intensity deviating from the average value ±2×standard deviation (μ±2σ) found for any one of the Miller indices , , and , the polycrystalline silicon rod is selected as the raw material for use in the production of single-crystalline silicon. The use of such a polycrystalline silicon raw material suppresses the local occurrence of the portions remaining unmelted, and can contribute to the stable production of single-crystalline silicon.

Raw material gas supply nozzles are arranged within a virtual concentric circle having its center at the center of a disk-like base plate (having an area half as large as an area of the base plate). Raw material gas is ejected at a flow velocity of 150 m/sec or more into a bell jar from the gas supply nozzles. In addition to one gas supply nozzle provided in a center portion of the base plate, three gas supply nozzles can be arranged at the vertex positions of a regular triangle inscribed in a circumscribed circle having its center at the gas supply nozzle in the center portion. With the gas supply nozzles so arranged, a smooth circulating flow is formed within a reactor.

A core wire holder 20 is formed with a core wire insert hole 21 having an opening part 22 on an upper surface of a main body and extending toward a lower surface side, and a silicon core wire 5 is inserted into the core wire insert hole 21. In addition, a slit-like gap part 60 extending along a virtual plane P including a central axis C of the core wire insert hole 21 is formed, and the slit-like gap part 60 is a gap part extending from the core wire insert hole 21 to reach an outer surface of the main body of the holder 20. The silicon core wire 5 inserted in the core wire insert hole 21 is fixed by fastening an upper part of the main body of the holder 20 from sides with, for example, a bolt/nut type fixing member 31.
