    摘要: A double-wall crucible is disclosed which is constructed by coaxially disposing a cylindrical partition wall in an outer crucible for holding a molten mass of silicon as a raw material and operated by heating the outer crucible and meanwhile supplying the raw material silicon to the gap between the outer crucible and the cylindrical partition wall and introducing the consequently produced molten mass of silicon to the interior of the cylindrical partition wall through a passage below the level of the molten mass of silicon interconnecting the outer crucible and the inner side of the cylindrical partition wall and meanwhile pulling a single crystal bar from the molten mass of silicon in the cylindrical partition wall. In this double-wall crucible, at least the cylindrical partition wall is formed of quartz glass having a hydroxyl group (OH group) content of not more than 30 ppm. In the crucible of this invention, the produced silicon single crystal enjoys improved quality and the operation of pulling enjoys enhanced yield because the cylindrical partition wall is softened or deformed only sparingly by the intense heat emanating from the molten mass of silicon. Since the cylindrical partition wall does not readily soften or deform on exposure to the heat, the partition wall can be fixed in place with a simple construction and the whole apparatus for the operation of pulling enjoys simplicity of construction and low cost of production.

    摘要: A process for producing a silicon single crystal is disclosed which comprises the steps of providing a silicon melt in a crucible, feeding grains of silicon polycrystal to the silicon melt and pulling up a silicon single crystal from the silicon melt. The concentration of residual hydrogen in the grains of silicon polycrystal is more than 10 ppmwt and less than 100 ppmwt. The process prevents the silicon single crystal from being polycrystalline.

    摘要: An apparatus for producing a silicon single crystal grown by the Czochralski method includes a main chamber having a round soulder interconnecting the upper end of a side wall and the lower end of a neck of the main chamber. The round shoulder has an inside surface so profiled as to form a portion of the periphery of an ellipse drawn about two foci which are composed of the upper end of a heater and a point of the longitudinal axis of a silicon single crystal being grown. The inside surface has a low emissivity. With the apparatus thus constructed, a silicon single crystal having a high dielectric breakdown strength of oxide film (SiO.sub.2) can be produced in a stable manner with high yield and productivity.

    摘要: A silicon single-crystal wafer having a diameter of 6 inches or larger and improved in the dielectric breakdown strength of oxide film especially in a peripheral part thereof is provided to thereby heighten the yield of device chips produced per wafer. 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.
