Abstract: A method and apparatus for growing and manufacturing a single crystal according to a so-called Czochralski (CZ) method. A seed crystal 12 is connected to a tip end of a wire 41a as a hanging member 41 to pull and form a single crystal part 15, arm-shaped members 44a of a lifting jig 44 are engaged in a recess 16 of a corrugated portion 14 formed on the single crystal part 15 during the pulling operation, the pulling speeds of both of the arm-shaped members 44a and wire 41a are synchronously controlled to provide smooth transfer between the arm-shaped members 44a and wire 41a, whereby the single crystal part 15 is pulled always at a constant pulling speed. In particular, a heavy-weight single crystal can be safely pulled and formed without any dislocation therein while minimizing an impact force applied to the crystal.
