Provided is a silicon electromagnetic casting apparatus that is capable of stably producing polycrystalline silicon used as a solar cell substrate material, having a bottomless cold mold and an induction heating coil, the apparatus for pulling down the silicon melted through electromagnetic induction heating by means of the induction coil and solidifying the silicon melt; further including a plasma torch for generating a transferable plasma arc and a top heater configured so as to face a top surface of the molten silicon, the top heater for generating heat through electromagnetic induction by means of the induction coil. The apparatus enables, upon production of a high quality polycrystalline silicon ingot as a solar cell substrate material along with plasma heating, stable production thereof without cracking in a final solidification portion.

A velocity of Ar gas flow passing through between a lower end of a cylindrical body and a thermal shielding body is influenced by arrangement of a pulling path of single crystal silicon, a cylindrical body, and a thermal shielding body. Accordingly, the velocity of the Ar gas flow passing through between a lower end of the cylindrical body and the thermal shielding body is controlled by adjusting a relative position of the pulling path of the single crystal silicon, the cylindrical body, and the thermal shielding body. As described above, dust falling off to silicon melt can be reduced, thereby preventing deterioration in quality of the single crystal silicon.

In a Czochralski (CZ) single crystal puller equipped with a cooler and a thermal insulation member, which are to be disposed in a CZ furnace, smooth recharge and additional charge of material are made possible. Further, elimination of dislocations from a silicon seed crystal by use of the Dash's neck method can be performed smoothly. To these ends, there is provided a CZ single crystal puller, wherein a cooler and a thermal insulation member are immediately moved upward away from a melt surface during recharge or additional charge of material or during elimination of dislocations from a silicon seed crystal by use of the Dash's neck method.

A semiconductor single crystal manufacturing apparatus and method are provided which are capable of improving the speed of designing and arranging a silicon single crystal manufacturing apparatus while reducing labor by making it possible to instantaneously find optimum design values and optimum arrangement for a cooler without requiring a lot of labor or time, regardless of a housing structure of a CZ furnace, in-furnace members' configuration, and manufacturing conditions. Stable manufacture of defect-free silicon single crystals is also made possible by designing and arranging the cooler such that when a heat absorption amount of the cooler is denoted by Q and a semiconductor single crystal radius is denoted by r, the heat absorption amount of the cooler Q satisfies r2/1100≦Q≦r2/400, or alternatively Q satisfies r2.7/20500≦Q≦r2.7/19300.
