To do.
- the arc electrode 15 is set in the cavity, arc discharge is performed from the inside of the mold, and the entire silica powder layer is heated to 1720 ° C. or more and melted. Simultaneously with this heating, the pressure is reduced from the mold side, the gas inside the silica is sucked to the outer layer side through the vents provided in the mold, and the silica powder being heated is degassed, thereby removing bubbles on the inner surface of the crucible. Then, the transparent silica glass layer 12 substantially free of bubbles is formed (step S13).
