  • Patent number: 6899759
    Abstract: A single crystal production method based on the Czochralski method comprises controlling a number of crucible rotations and crystal rotations so that a number of vibrations for driving a melt, determined on the basis of the number of crucible and crystal rotations during a single crystal growing procedure, is outside a range from 95% to 105% of a number of sloshing resonance vibrations of the melt. In another embodiment, the method comprises controlling a number of rotations of a crystal and crucible, so that when a number of vibrations for driving a melt, determined by the number of crucible and crystal rotations during a single crystal growing procedure, is within a range from 95% to 105% of a number of sloshing resonance vibrations of the melt, the number of vibrations of the melt due to sloshing does not exceed 2000 times during a period when the number of vibrations is within that range.
