本發明係關於矽單結晶的製造方法及矽單結晶的提拉裝置。The invention relates to a method for manufacturing silicon single crystal and a pulling device for silicon single crystal.

在被用於半導體用晶圓時,矽單結晶中高濃度的碳成為引起半導體元件不良的原因。 因此,已知藉由控制從爐內加熱器、石墨坩堝等地高溫碳構件混入原料融液中之CO的汙染速度、以及來自原料融液的CO蒸發速度來降低結晶中的碳濃度。再者,來自高溫碳構件的CO(gas)係基於下記反應式(1)而產生。 SiO(gas)+2C(solid)→CO(gas)+SiC(solid)…式(1) When used in semiconductor wafers, the high concentration of carbon in the silicon single crystal is the cause of semiconductor device defects. Therefore, it is known to reduce the carbon concentration in the crystal by controlling the pollution rate of CO mixed into the raw material melt from high-temperature carbon members such as furnace heaters and graphite crucibles, and the CO evaporation rate from the raw material melt. Furthermore, CO (gas) derived from the high-temperature carbon member is generated based on the following reaction formula (1). SiO(gas)+2C(solid)→CO(gas)+SiC(solid)…Formula (1)

因此,專利文獻1中揭露了將存在於石英坩堝內的含有CO的氣體從提拉裝置的加熱器下方排出的技術。 另外,專利文獻2中揭露了將氬氣體等的惰性氣體從提拉裝置的上方導入石英坩堝內,將含有CO的氣體導向較加熱器上端更靠上方、及較下端更靠下方,從提拉裝置的下方排出的技術。 Therefore, Patent Document 1 discloses a technique of discharging CO-containing gas existing in a quartz crucible from under the heater of the pulling device. In addition, Patent Document 2 discloses that an inert gas such as argon gas is introduced into the quartz crucible from above the pulling device, and the gas containing CO is directed above the upper end of the heater and below the lower end from the pulling Discharge technology under the device.

[發明欲解決的問題][Problems to be solved by the invention]

但是,前記專利文獻1記載的技術,其係為一般的排氣構造,但因為只能由爐內下部排氣,所以具有無法有效率地排出在爐內上部側產生之CO氣體的課題。 另外,前記專利文獻2記載的技術,在1系統排氣中,於熱區設置複數排氣路徑,則靠近裝置側排氣口的位置之排氣成為優勢,因此距離裝置側排氣口較遠的位置,其排氣效率會因為配管阻抗的影響而低下。因此,具有即使設置複數排氣口也無法獲致充分效果的課題。 However, the technology described in the aforementioned Patent Document 1 has a general exhaust structure. However, since it can only be exhausted from the lower part of the furnace, there is a problem that CO gas generated on the upper side of the furnace cannot be efficiently discharged. In addition, in the technology described in the aforementioned Patent Document 2, in the exhaust of one system, if a plurality of exhaust paths are provided in the hot zone, the exhaust near the device-side exhaust port becomes an advantage, so it is far away from the device-side exhaust port. The exhaust efficiency will decrease due to the impedance of the piping. Therefore, there is a problem that a sufficient effect cannot be obtained even if a plurality of exhaust ports are provided.

本發明之目的為提供矽單結晶的製造方法及矽單結晶的提拉裝置,其能夠有效率地將含有CO的氣體排氣,以降低矽單結晶中的碳濃度。 [解決問題的手段] An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a silicon single crystal and a silicon single crystal pulling device, which can efficiently exhaust a gas containing CO to reduce the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal. [Means for solving the problem]

As described above, a carbon member that becomes a high temperature such as a heater and SiO gas generated from a silicon melt undergo a reaction as shown in equation (1) to generate CO gas. As this CO gas is mixed into the silicon melt, the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal increases. Basically, the higher the temperature of the carbon member, the easier it is to generate CO gas by the reaction of formula (1). As the heater with the highest temperature carbon component among the furnace components, it produces the most CO gas. Therefore, by evacuating from the back surface of the heater that becomes the generation site of CO gas, the CO gas can be exhausted in the shortest path, and thus the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal can be reduced.

Between the second heating section. According to this invention, the CO gas generated by the heater can be directly exhausted from the gap between the first heating portion 51 of the heater. Therefore, the CO gas generated by the heater 5 can be exhausted more reliably, and the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal after pulling can be reduced.

本發明中以此為佳:從前記加熱器的背面排氣的排氣口,形成於和前記第1加熱部的背面重疊的位置。 依據此發明,能夠確實地將CO氣體從配列於加熱器的寬幅方向的複數第1加熱部之間的狹縫狀的空隙排氣,因此能夠從CO氣體產生位置以最短路徑將CO氣體排氣,能夠更確實地降低矽單結晶中的碳濃度。 In the present invention, it is preferable that the exhaust port that exhausts air from the back surface of the heater described above is formed at a position overlapping the back surface of the first heating portion described above.

In addition, in the present invention, the gas introduced into the pull-up device described above is exhausted further below the lower end of the heater described above. According to these inventions, even when the exhaust is only above the upper end of the heater or only below the lower end of the heater, by adding exhaust on the back side of the heater, CO can be reduced The gas is exhausted from near the CO gas generation site, so the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal can be reduced.

本發明中以此為佳:前記提拉裝置具備配置於前記加熱器之外側的排氣管,前記排氣管具備形成於對應於前記加熱器之背面的位置的中部排氣口。 依據此發明,若在加熱器的外側配置排氣管,則能夠有效率地將從加熱器產生的CO氣體排氣,因此能夠防止CO氣體混入矽融液中,使得矽單結晶中的碳濃度上升的情況。 尤其是,若有複數排氣管,且各個排氣管於加熱器的周方向均等配置,則能夠從加熱器的周方向中的均等位置將CO氣體排氣。因此,含有被攝入矽單結晶中之碳的氣體得以在矽單結晶的結晶軸周圍均等地排氣。另外,各個排氣管具備中部排氣口,藉此能夠進行有效率的排氣,能夠更降低矽單結晶中的碳濃度。 In the present invention, it is preferable that the pre-draw device includes an exhaust pipe arranged outside the pre-heater, and the pre-exhaust pipe has a central exhaust port formed at a position corresponding to the back of the pre-heater.

The pulling device 1 is a device for pulling a silicon single crystal 10 by Chuklaski method, and it includes a chamber 2 constituting an outer profile and a crucible 3 arranged at the center of the chamber 2. The crucible 3 is a double-layer structure composed of an inner quartz crucible 3A and an outer graphite crucible 3B, and it is fixed to the upper end of the support shaft 4 that can rotate and move up and down.

在坩堝3的外側設有包圍住坩堝3的阻抗加熱式的加熱器5,在其外側設有沿著腔室2的內面作為外筒的隔熱材6。 在坩堝3的上方,設有在與支持軸4同軸上依逆方向或同方向以既定速度回轉的索線等的提拉軸7。在此提拉軸7的下端安裝有種結晶8。 A resistance heating heater 5 surrounding the crucible 3 is provided on the outer side of the crucible 3, and a heat insulating material 6 serving as an outer cylinder along the inner surface of the chamber 2 is provided on the outer side thereof. Above the crucible 3, a pull shaft 7 such as a cable that rotates at a predetermined speed in a reverse direction or the same direction coaxially with the support shaft 4 is provided. A seed crystal 8 is attached to the lower end of the pulling shaft 7 here.

在腔室2內配置了筒狀的熱遮蔽體12。 熱遮蔽體12擔任之任務為:對於育成中的矽單結晶10,阻隔來自坩堝3內的矽融液9及加熱器5及坩堝3的側壁之高溫的輻射熱,並且對於作為結晶成長界面的固液界面的附近,抑制向外部的熱擴散,控制單結晶中心部及單結晶外周部之提拉軸方向的溫度梯度。 另外,熱遮蔽體12亦具有整流筒的功能,其係使得來自矽融液9的蒸發部藉由從爐上方導入的惰性氣體向爐外排氣。 A cylindrical heat shield 12 is arranged in the chamber 2. The role of the heat shield body 12 is to block the high-temperature radiant heat from the silicon melt 9 in the crucible 3 and the heater 5 and the side wall of the crucible 3 for the silicon single crystal 10 being grown, and to solidify the interface as the crystal growth interface. In the vicinity of the liquid interface, thermal diffusion to the outside is suppressed, and the temperature gradient in the direction of the pulling axis of the central portion of the single crystal and the outer periphery of the single crystal is controlled. In addition, the heat shield 12 also has the function of a rectifying cylinder, which causes the evaporation part from the silicon melt 9 to be exhausted to the outside of the furnace by an inert gas introduced from above the furnace.

An exhaust port 14 that sucks and discharges the gas in the chamber 2 by driving a vacuum pump (not shown) is provided in the lower portion of the chamber 2. The inert gas introduced into the chamber 2 from the gas inlet 13 descends between the silicon single crystal 10 and the heat shield 12 during the growth, and passes through the gap between the lower end of the heat shield 12 and the liquid surface of the silicon melt 9, It flows toward the outside of the heat shield 12 and then to the outside of the crucible 3, and then descends outside the crucible 3 through the exhaust pipe 15 from the central exhaust port 16A, which will be described later, and is discharged from the exhaust port 14.

The solid raw material melts to form a silicon melt 9. When the silicon melt 9 is formed in the crucible 3, the pulling shaft 7 is lowered so that the seed crystal 8 is immersed in the silicon melt 9 while slowly turning the crucible 3 and the pulling shaft 7 in a predetermined direction. The pulling shaft 7 is pulled, thereby cultivating the silicon single crystal 10 connected to the seed crystal 8.

The first heating portion 51 is composed of a carbon rod-like body or a plate-like body that is an impedance heating body extending vertically, and a plurality of them are provided through a gap in a wide direction perpendicular to the vertical direction.

第2加熱部52,係由在水平方向延伸的碳製之棒狀體或板狀體所構成,將寬幅方向上鄰接的第1加熱部51的上端每隔一個彼此連結。 第2加熱部53,係由在水平方向延伸的碳製之棒狀體或板狀體所構成,將寬幅方向上鄰接的第1加熱部51的下端每隔一個彼此連結。 亦即,加熱器5,將第1加熱部51在寬幅方向上隔著空隙配列,用第2加熱部52將第1加熱部51的上端每隔一個彼此連結,用第2加熱部53在與上部相異的位置將第1加熱部51的下端每隔一個彼此連結,藉此形成為蛇行形狀。 The second heating portion 52 is composed of a carbon rod-shaped body or a plate-shaped body extending in the horizontal direction, and connects every other upper end of the first heating portion 51 adjacent in the width direction. The second heating portion 53 is composed of a carbon rod-shaped body or a plate-shaped body extending in the horizontal direction, and connects every other lower end of the first heating portion 51 adjacent in the width direction. That is, the heater 5 arranges the first heating portion 51 across the gap in the width direction, connects the upper ends of the first heating portion 51 to each other with the second heating portion 52, and uses the second heating portion 53 in The lower end of the first heating portion 51 is connected to each other at a position different from the upper portion, thereby forming a meandering shape.

中部排氣口16A,如圖4所示般,可以配置在加熱器5的背面之高度方向的範圍H2的範圍內。範圍H2係為,在加熱器5的高度方向中,至少中部排氣口16A的一部分會被包含於從第2加熱部52的上端到第2加熱部53的下端之間的高度方向的範圍H0內的範圍。 若在高度方向的範圍H2內形成中部排氣口16A,則至少從加熱器5的背面之排氣是可能的。因此,能夠使得已在加熱器5產生的CO氣體從加熱器5的背面排氣,所以能夠降低提拉後的矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 As shown in FIG. 4, the middle exhaust port 16A may be arranged within the range H2 of the height direction of the back surface of the heater 5. The range H2 is a range H0 in the height direction from the upper end of the second heating section 52 to the lower end of the second heating section 53 in the height direction of the heater 5, at least a part of the central exhaust port 16A Within the scope. If the middle exhaust port 16A is formed within the range H2 in the height direction, exhaust from at least the back of the heater 5 is possible. Therefore, the CO gas that has been generated in the heater 5 can be exhausted from the back surface of the heater 5, so the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 after pulling can be reduced.

更佳為:將中部排氣口16A配置在從加熱器5的第2加熱部52之上端到第2加熱部53的下端之間的高度方向的範圍H0中。 若在高度方向的範圍H0中形成中部排氣口16A,則能夠使得已在加熱器5產生的CO氣體從加熱器5的第1加熱部51間的空隙直接排氣。因此,能夠更確實地使已在加熱器5產生的CO氣體排氣,能夠降低提拉後的矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 More preferably, the central exhaust port 16A is arranged in the range H0 in the height direction from the upper end of the second heating portion 52 of the heater 5 to the lower end of the second heating portion 53. If the middle exhaust port 16A is formed in the range H0 in the height direction, the CO gas that has been generated in the heater 5 can be directly exhausted from the gap between the first heating portions 51 of the heater 5. Therefore, the CO gas that has been generated in the heater 5 can be exhausted more reliably, and the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 after pulling can be reduced.

最佳為:如圖4所示,將中部排氣口16A配置在形成於鄰接的第1加熱部51之間的空隙的高度方向之範圍H1中。 若在高度方向的範圍H1中形成中部排氣口16A,則從形成於加熱器5的第1加熱部51間的空隙排氣的量變多。因此,能夠從變成最高溫且CO氣體的產生量也變多的第1加熱部51的空隙直接將CO氣體以最短路徑排氣,因此能夠更確實地降低矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 Preferably, as shown in FIG. 4, the central exhaust port 16A is arranged in the height direction range H1 of the gap formed between the adjacent first heating portions 51. If the middle exhaust port 16A is formed in the range H1 in the height direction, the amount of exhaust gas from the gap formed between the first heating portions 51 of the heater 5 increases. Therefore, it is possible to directly exhaust the CO gas through the shortest path from the gap of the first heating portion 51 that becomes the highest temperature and the amount of generation of CO gas is increased, so that the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 can be more reliably reduced.

[3]實施形態的作用及效果 在此種排氣流路中,從石英坩堝3A上部的氣體導入口13(參照圖1)導入的惰性氣體,如圖2所示,沿著矽融液9的融液表面,擴散到石英坩堝3A的外側。矽融液9之表面的SiO氣體的一部分,沿著加熱器5的裏面流動,另外一部分的氣體則流經石英坩堝3A和加熱器5之間。此時,流經石英坩堝3A和加熱器5之間的氣體,通過加熱器5的內部,和構成加熱器5的碳製之材料反應,產生CO氣體。 已產生的CO氣體,從形成於加熱器5的背面之中部排氣口16A被吸入,流過排氣管15內,不會擴散到其他部位而從排氣口14排出。 [3] Function and effect of the embodiment In this exhaust flow path, the inert gas introduced from the gas introduction port 13 (refer to FIG. 1) at the upper part of the quartz crucible 3A diffuses into the quartz crucible along the melt surface of the silicon melt 9 as shown in FIG. 3A outside. A part of the SiO gas on the surface of the silicon melt 9 flows along the inside of the heater 5, and another part of the gas flows between the quartz crucible 3A and the heater 5. At this time, the gas flowing between the quartz crucible 3A and the heater 5 reacts with the carbon material constituting the heater 5 through the inside of the heater 5 to generate CO gas. The generated CO gas is sucked from the exhaust port 16A formed in the middle of the back surface of the heater 5, flows through the exhaust pipe 15, and is discharged from the exhaust port 14 without being diffused to other parts.

因此,將SiO氣體和碳反應而產生的CO氣體從中部排氣口16A吸入,再透過排氣管15從排氣口14排氣,藉此,能夠以最短路徑將CO氣體直接排氣,所以能夠降低提拉裝置1所提拉的矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 另外,因為能夠使得CO氣體從配列於加熱器5的寬幅方向的複數第1加熱部51之間的縫隙排氣,所以能夠從CO氣體產生位置以最短路徑將CO氣體排氣,能夠降低矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 Therefore, CO gas generated by the reaction of SiO gas and carbon is sucked in from the central exhaust port 16A, and then exhausted from the exhaust port 14 through the exhaust pipe 15, whereby the CO gas can be directly exhausted in the shortest path, so The carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 pulled by the pulling device 1 can be reduced. In addition, since the CO gas can be exhausted from the gap between the plurality of first heating portions 51 arranged in the width direction of the heater 5, the CO gas can be exhausted from the CO gas generation position in the shortest path, and the silicon can be reduced. The carbon concentration in the single crystal 10.

複數排氣管15,配置於加熱器5周圍的均等的位置,藉此,能夠從石英坩堝3A周圍的均等的位置將CO氣體排氣。因此,能夠使得矽單結晶10的結晶軸周圍的被攝入矽單結晶10中的碳的量為均等,所以能夠使得矽單結晶的碳濃度均一。另外,藉由各個排氣管15具備中部排氣口16A,能夠進行有效率的排氣,能夠更降低矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。The plural exhaust pipes 15 are arranged at equal positions around the heater 5, whereby the CO gas can be exhausted from the equal positions around the quartz crucible 3A. Therefore, the amount of carbon taken into the silicon single crystal 10 around the crystal axis of the silicon single crystal 10 can be made equal, so the carbon concentration of the silicon single crystal can be made uniform. In addition, since each exhaust pipe 15 includes a central exhaust port 16A, efficient exhaust can be performed, and the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 can be further reduced.

[4]第2的實施形態 繼之,說明本發明的第2的實施形態。再者,以下的說明中,關於與已經說明的部分相同的部分,賦予相同符號並省略說明。 前述的第1的實施形態中,在一段型的加熱器5的背面之略中央部形成中部排氣口16A,使已產生的CO氣體排氣。 [4] Second embodiment Next, the second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the following description, the same parts as those already explained are given the same symbols and their description is omitted. In the aforementioned first embodiment, a middle exhaust port 16A is formed in the central portion of the back surface of the one-stage heater 5 to exhaust the generated CO gas.

相對於此,在本實施形態中的相異點在於:如圖5所示,使用二段型的加熱器5A、5B,在上方的加熱器5A的背面中央部形成中部排氣口16A,在下方的加熱器5B的背面中央部形成中部排氣口16B,使CO氣體從各個中部排氣口16A、16B排氣。再者,加熱器的段數不限於此,在配置了段數為2以上之加熱器的情況下,在各個加熱器的背面中央部形成中部排氣口亦可。 藉由像這樣的本實施形態,也能夠享有和前述第1實施形態相同的作用及效果。 On the other hand, the difference in this embodiment is that, as shown in FIG. 5, two-stage heaters 5A and 5B are used, and a middle exhaust port 16A is formed at the center of the back of the upper heater 5A. A central exhaust port 16B is formed in the center of the back surface of the lower heater 5B, and CO gas is exhausted from each central exhaust port 16A, 16B. In addition, the number of heater segments is not limited to this, and when a heater with a number of segments of 2 or more is arranged, a middle exhaust port may be formed in the center of the back of each heater. With this embodiment like this, it is possible to enjoy the same operation and effect as the aforementioned first embodiment.

[5]實施形態的變形 再者,本發明不限定於前述實施形態,亦包含如下所示之變形。 前述實施形態中,安裝了排氣管15的內筒16上,僅形成了1處的中部排氣口16A,但本發明不限於此。亦即,除了中部排氣口16A之外,還可以在加熱器5的上部形成吸入CO氣體的上部排氣口,還可以在加熱器5的下部形成吸入CO氣體的下部排氣口。 [5] Modification of the embodiment Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the aforementioned embodiment, and includes the following modifications. In the aforementioned embodiment, only one central exhaust port 16A is formed on the inner tube 16 to which the exhaust pipe 15 is attached, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, in addition to the central exhaust port 16A, an upper exhaust port for inhaling CO gas may be formed in the upper part of the heater 5, and a lower exhaust port for inhaling CO gas may be formed in the lower part of the heater 5.

前述實施形態中,加熱器5係為在加熱器5的寬幅方向蛇行者,但本發明不限於此。亦即,加熱器亦可在上下方向蛇行者。總之,只要構成加熱器的加熱體間有狹縫狀的空隙,則不問其形狀。 另外,在能夠達成本發明目的的範圍內,本發明實施時的具體的構造及形狀等亦可為其他構造等。 [實施例] In the foregoing embodiment, the heater 5 is a meander in the width direction of the heater 5, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the heater can also meander in the up and down direction. In short, as long as there is a slit-like gap between the heating bodies constituting the heater, the shape is not concerned. In addition, as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved, the specific structure and shape of the present invention may be other structures. [Example]

繼之,說明本發明的實施例。再者,本發明不限定於以下的實施例。 [1]實爐試驗 使用圖1所示的實際運作的提拉裝置1,在加熱器5的背面形成排氣管15,針對在加熱器5之高度方向的略一半的位置形成中部排氣口16A的情況下(實施例)、以及在較加熱器5的高度方向之下端更下方形成下部排氣口的情況下(比較例),測定提拉後的矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。結果顯示如圖6。再者,形成了中部排氣口16A的內筒16、排氣管15係由石墨材、碳纖維強化複合材等的碳製材料形成。 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. Furthermore, the present invention is not limited to the following examples. [1] Real furnace test Using the actual lifting device 1 shown in FIG. 1, the exhaust pipe 15 is formed on the back of the heater 5, and the central exhaust port 16A is formed at a position halfway in the height direction of the heater 5 (implementation Example), and in the case where a lower exhaust port is formed below the lower end in the height direction of the heater 5 (Comparative Example), the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 after pulling is measured. The results are shown in Figure 6. Furthermore, the inner cylinder 16 and the exhaust pipe 15 in which the central exhaust port 16A is formed are formed of carbon materials such as graphite materials and carbon fiber reinforced composite materials.

由圖6可以確認:將實施例和比較例對比,則比較例從矽單結晶10的提拉開始以來,就有碳濃度高於實施例的碳濃度之傾向。另外,比較例,其固化率較高,亦即,隨著矽單結晶10之提拉的進行,其變得較實施例的碳濃度還高。 相對於此,相較於下排氣的情況,實施例之矽單結晶10中的碳濃度被抑制得較低,能夠確認中部排氣口16A造成的CO氣體的排氣效率佳。 From FIG. 6, it can be confirmed that when the example and the comparative example are compared, the comparative example has a tendency that the carbon concentration is higher than that of the example since the silicon single crystal 10 is pulled up. In addition, the comparative example has a higher curing rate, that is, as the silicon single crystal 10 is pulled up, it becomes higher than the carbon concentration of the example. In contrast to this, the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 of the embodiment is suppressed to be lower than in the case of the lower exhaust, and it can be confirmed that the exhaust efficiency of the CO gas caused by the central exhaust port 16A is good.

[2]由模擬確認 繼之,使用數值模擬軟體,進行排氣位置別的矽融液9中之碳濃度的推定。 具體言之,如圖7所示,針對僅有下部排氣(A)、僅有中間排氣(B)、中間排氣及下部排氣(C)、及中間排氣及上部排氣(D),推定矽融液9中的碳濃度。結果顯示如圖8。 實際的提拉中,以矽融液9中的碳濃度為初期濃度,碳隨著偏析而被攝入矽單結晶10中,因此,依據模擬的算出值可以視為對應於實際的矽單結晶10的碳濃度。 [2] Confirmed by simulation Next, using numerical simulation software, the carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9 at the exhaust position is estimated. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, for lower exhaust (A) only, intermediate exhaust (B), intermediate exhaust and lower exhaust (C), and intermediate exhaust and upper exhaust (D ), the carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9 is estimated. The results are shown in Figure 8. In the actual pulling, the carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9 is used as the initial concentration, and carbon is absorbed into the silicon single crystal 10 with segregation. Therefore, the calculated value based on the simulation can be regarded as corresponding to the actual silicon single crystal 10 carbon concentration.

和實爐試驗一樣,僅有下部排氣(A)的情況下,如圖8所示,、矽融液9中的碳濃度最高。僅有中間排氣(B)的情況下,可以確認矽融液9中的碳濃度為最低。 中間排氣及下部排氣(C)的情況下,可以確認得知:其雖然沒有像僅有中間排氣(B)那樣的程度,但相較於下部排氣(A)的情況,其矽融液9中的碳濃度低下。 As in the actual furnace test, only the lower exhaust (A), as shown in FIG. 8, has the highest carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9. In the case of only the intermediate exhaust (B), it can be confirmed that the carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9 is the lowest. In the case of the middle exhaust and the lower exhaust (C), it can be confirmed that although it is not as good as the middle exhaust (B) alone, the silicon is lower than that of the lower exhaust (A). The carbon concentration in the melt 9 is low.

同樣地,針對中間排氣及上部排氣(D),亦將其與僅有下部排氣(A)比較,而確認得知其矽融液9中的碳濃度低下。 從以上可知:藉由將中間排氣與上部排氣組合、或將中間排氣與下部排氣組合,能夠降低矽單結晶10中的碳濃度。 再者,將上部排氣或下部排氣與中間排氣組合的情況下,僅有中間排氣的場合更能夠使矽單結晶10中的碳濃度下降,推測其原因在於由於上部排氣、下部排氣存在,會使得中間排氣的排氣效率降低之故。 Similarly, the intermediate exhaust gas and the upper exhaust gas (D) are compared with the lower exhaust gas (A) only, and it is confirmed that the carbon concentration in the silicon melt 9 is low. From the above, it can be seen that by combining the intermediate exhaust gas with the upper exhaust gas or the intermediate exhaust gas with the lower exhaust gas, the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10 can be reduced. Furthermore, in the case of combining the upper exhaust gas or the lower exhaust gas with the intermediate exhaust gas, only the intermediate exhaust gas can reduce the carbon concentration in the silicon single crystal 10, which is presumed to be due to the upper exhaust gas and the lower exhaust gas. The existence of exhaust gas will reduce the exhaust efficiency of the intermediate exhaust gas.
