Abstract

See full text

The amount of Group-V element included in a melt 6 has the close relationship with the oxygen concentration of the melt 6. This relationship is utilized for controlling the oxygen concentration of a single crystal 8 at a high level. The content of Group-V element is calculated from the weight of the melt 6 gauged by a gravimeter 11 and compared with a preset value in a control unit 12. When the calculated content is smaller than the preset value, the control signal to additionally supply Group-V element to the melt 6 is outputted from the control unit 12 to a feeder 14. When the calculated content is larger than the preset value, the control signal to supply a raw material to the melt 6 is outputted to another feeder 13.
