An apparatus and a method capable of automatically adjusting an initial position of the surface of a melt without an operator are provided. In a single crystal puller using a wire as a suspender for a seed crystal for growing a single crystal of silicon or the like according to the CZ method, a reference position of the seed crystal is detected, the wire is unwound to lower the end of the wire to a position higher by a distance W-X from the reference position and then pulled upward above said reference position to correct the wire for an extension due to the weight of a single crystal attached thereto. Also, the wire is left above a melt for about ten minutes to provide a constant amount of extension to the wire due to heat of the melt These operations are automatically performed.

A crystal pulling apparatus is disclosed which employs the Czochralski method. The crystal pulling apparatus is operated while a heater for heating a material melt in a crucible is controlled by the main controller of a main system. When maintenance of a heating state is disabled for some reason, a relay of a signal changeover circuit is switched so as to maintain the heating state under control of the backup controller of a backup system, thereby maintaining the material melt in a molten state. Thus, even when it becomes impossible for the main system to heat the material melt within the crucible, the material melt can be prevented from becoming solidified.

The present invention provides control of single crystal growth after the recovery from power failure when controlling crystal growth in an automatic mode. A source voltage is supplied to a controller 70 through a no-break power supply 62. At the time of recovery from power failure, the controller continues the automatic operation mode with the same control output as that stored when power failure is detected (84, 85) if the power failure time t is t .ltoreq.t.sub.1 (for example, 1 second), switches the control mode to the manual control mode with the same control output as that stored when the power failure is detected (86, 87) if t.sub.1 t.sub.3.

The present invention is a method for producing a single crystal of which a whole plane in a radial direction is a defect-free region with pulling the single crystal from a raw material melt in a chamber by Czochralski method, wherein a pulling condition is changed in a direction of the crystal growth axis during pulling the single crystal so that a margin of a pulling rate is always a predetermined value or more that the single crystal of which the whole plane in a radial direction is a defect-free region can be pulled. Thereby, there can be provided a method for producing a single crystal in which when a single crystal is produced by CZ method, the single crystal of which a whole plane in a radial direction is a defect-free region entirely in a direction of the crystal growth axis can be produced with stability.

摘要:
The present invention is a method for producing a single crystal with pulling the single crystal from a raw material melt in a chamber by CZ method, wherein when growing the single crystal, where a pulling rate is defined as V and a temperature gradient of the crystal is defined as G during growing the single crystal, the temperature gradient G of the crystal is controlled by changing at least two or more of pulling conditions. Thereby, there is provided a method for producing a single crystal in which when the single crystal is grown by CZ method, V/G can be controlled without lowering a pulling rate V, and thus the single crystal including a desired defect region can be produced effectively for a short time.

A method for measuring a diameter of a single crystal ingot pulled up in a single crystal pulling apparatus comprising: calculating the weight of the pulled-up single crystal, calculating the descent amount of the melt surface relative to the crucible wall from the calculated pulled-up weight of the grown single crystal, and then either correcting the value of the ingot diameter actually measured by the optical sensor in response to the descent amount of the melt surface level or raising the crucible by an amount equal to the descent amount of the surface level.
