Abstract: The success rate of multi-pulled single crystal growth by the Czochralski method is enhanced by the use of a melt crucible having an amount of barium on an inner surface thereof which varies inversely with the diameter of the crucible. At least one single crystal is separated from the melt by a free span method.

Abstract: Single crystal silicon ingots are grown by the multi-pulling method in a single crucible with minimization of dislocations by incorporating barium as a quartz crystallization inhibitor in amounts proportional to the diameter of the Czochralski crucible in which the crystal is grown. In at least one of the crystal pulling steps, a magnetic field is applied.

Abstract: Silicon single crystals having suppressed deformation and dislocations and the successful omission of the tail section are produced by growing the straight-body section of the silicon single crystal under the influence of a horizontal magnetic field with a magnetic flux density at its magnetic center being ?1000 Gauss, and ?2000 Gauss, reducing the lifting speed of the silicon single crystal relative to the surface of the melt to 0 mm/minute, maintaining a static state until there is a decrease in the apparent weight of the silicon single crystal, then further maintaining the static state so that the entire growth front of the silicon single crystal forms a convex shape protruding in a direction opposite to the lifting direction of the silicon single crystal, and separating the silicon single crystal from the melt.
