Abstract: A crystal growth apparatus includes a crucible, a heating device, a thermal insulation cover, and a driving device. The crucible contains materials to be melted, wherein the heating device heats the crucible to melt the materials; the thermal insulation cover is provided upon the materials, wherein the thermal insulation cover includes a main body, which has a bottom surface facing an interior of the crucible, and a insulating member being provided at the main body; the driving device moves the thermal insulation cover towards or away from the materials, whereby, the thermal insulation cover effectively blocks heat conduction and heat convection, which prevents thermal energy from escaping out of the crucible.

Abstract: A stirring apparatus of an ingot casting furnace includes a rotating shaft and at least one fin. The fin is provided onto the rotating shaft, and has a first edge, a second edge of unequal length provided correspondingly, and a third edge connecting the first and the second edges. The rotating shaft can be driven to rotate, which consequently drives the at least one fin to stir materials in a crucible. The length of the first edge is different from that of the second edge in order for the materials in the crucible can be mixed with dopants more uniformly during the stirring process to produce ingots of stable quality.
