The high voltage transformer is capable of producing an output voltage of 10-35 kV and comprises a primary coil, a secondary coil, and a magnetic core, wherein a casting resin is injected into the coil part and subsequently cured. The casting resin and bobbin material used for making the coils have heat distortion temperature of at least 130° C., and contain an inorganic filler. The surface of the bobbin may be pretreated.

This wafer has no crystal defects with regard to the dielectric breakdown strength of oxide film in its peripheral region which extends from the circumference and accounts for up to 50% of the total area, in particular which extends from the circumference to a circle 30 mm apart from the circumference. A process for producing a silicon single crystal for easily producing, by the Czochralski method, a silicon single-crystal wafer improved in the dielectric breakdown strength of oxide film especially in a peripheral part thereof without considerably lowering the production efficiency is provided. In this process, the silicon single crystal which is being grown by the Czochralski method is pulled at a rate which is 80 to 60% of the critical pull rate inherent in the pulling apparatus.
