Abstract
A dendritic crystal 3 of silicon is pulled from <PICT:0930432/III/1> a super-cooled portion of a molten drop 2 at the upper end of a rod 1, melting being effected by an induction heating coil which is moved relatively to the rod as pulling proceeds. The dendritic crystal may alternatively be pulled from a drop at the lower end of a rod. The seed crystal may be first lowered into the molten drop and then a water-cooled coil 5 moved into position to effect supercooling. Cooling may alternatively or in addition be effected by cooling gas. The molten drop may be supported by an additional induction coil 6. The solid portion of the rod 1 may be cooled by a water-cooled coil 7. Coils 6 and 7 may be replaced by single coil (Fig. 2, not shown). The container 11 may be of quartz and may be sprayed with water. Pulling may be effected in an atmosphere of hydrogen. The rod may be doped before treatment or a doping agent may be added to the molten zone.
