SINGLE CRYSTAL PULLING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PULLING SINGLE CRYSTAL
Abstract:
A single crystal pulling apparatus includes: a pulling furnace having a central axis; and magnetic field generating apparatus around the pulling furnace and having coils, for applying a horizontal magnetic field to molten semiconductor raw material to suppress convection in crucible, in which, main coils and sub-coils are provided, as the main coils, two pairs of coils arranged facing each other are provided, two coil axes thereof are included in the same horizontal plane, a center angle α between the two coil axes sandwiching the X-axis, which is a magnetic force line direction on the central axis in the horizontal plane, is 100 degrees or more and 120 degrees or less, as the sub-coils, a pair of superconducting coils arranged to face each other is provided and its one coil axis is aligned with the X-axis, and current values of the main coils and the sub-coils can be set independently.
