Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent rotary deflection of pulled single crystal, by blowing an inert gas from >=3 gas outlets in the direction perpendicular to a pulling shaft on the pulling shaft or single crystal which is being pulled up. CONSTITUTION:The seed 3 attached to the chuck 4 of the pulling shaft 5 consisting of a flexible material is immersed in a crystal material in a molten state put in the crucible 1, it is pulled up while being rotated, the single crystal 2 is grown, an inert gas is blown in the direction perpendicular to the pulling shaft from >=3 gas inlets 7 set in the crystal holding chamber 8 on the pulling shaft 5 or the single crystal, and the rotary deflection of the pulling shaft 5 is rapidly damped.

(Prior Art) In a conventional large single crystal pulling apparatus, a metal wire or pole chain (instead of a metal rod) is attached to the seed pulling shaft, which allows the seed (seed crystal) to move up and down while rotating. Although the height of the equipment is controlled using flexible materials such as commonly known as beads (i)), such pulling equipment is particularly prone to seed damage due to seed rotation, external vibration, and gas flow within the furnace. Rotational runout occurs, making it difficult to pull a perfect single crystal, and a countermeasure for this problem has been strongly desired. Simply put, rotational runout is lateral runout, and when it is complicated, the shape seen from above centered on the seed pulling axis is circular, columnar, 8-shaped, or X-shaped.

(Structure and operation of the invention) FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of the structure of a single crystal pulling apparatus embodying the invention. 1 in the figure is a crucible, inside of which a molten crystal material is stored. Note that the heating device for the crucible is well known and is therefore not shown. 2 is a growing single crystal, 3 is a seed, 4 is a chuck that holds the parts below the seed,
5 is a pulling shaft, in this case a metal wire or ball chain; 6 is a mechanism for pulling and rotating seeds and single crystals; 7 is a gas inlet; 8 is a crystal storage chamber (chamber, furnace) 9
is a TV camera for crystal monitoring, and 10 is a viewing window. Second
The figure is a cross-sectional view of Figure 1 showing an example of a state in which gas is sprayed from the gas inlet to the pulling shaft. Although a plurality of gas blowing lowers a are shown, there may be one or more gas introducing lowers, and the number of gas blowing lowers a can be arbitrarily selected from three or more depending on the situation, but depending on the gas blowing Decide by considering the balance so that the pulling axis is centered. An inert gas is used as the gas, and the part to which the gas is sprayed may be a single crystal part below the pulling axis.

Now, actually by seed rotation etc. as above,
If rotational vibration occurs in the pulling shaft, the condition is detected using a video camera 9, for example, and the gas flow rate from the gas introduction lower is adjusted to inert the gas outlet to the pulling shaft or single crystal. By blowing gas, the rotational vibration of the pulling shaft can be quickly attenuated.
