Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A method for producing a SiC single crystal by a solution method of bringing a seed crystal into contact with a Si solution of C and pulling up a SiC single crystal, the production method of a SiC single crystal including connecting the seed crystal to a seed crystal holder, disposing a cooling mechanism on the seed crystal holder, and promoting cooling of the seed crystal holder by the cooling mechanism in accordance with an increase in the pulling amount of the SiC single crystal.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for producing a SiC single crystal by a solution method of bringing a seed crystal into contact with a Si solution of C and pulling up a SiC single crystal, the production method of a SiC single crystal comprising: connecting said seed crystal to a seed crystal holder, and promoting cooling of said seed crystal holder in accordance with an increase in the pulling amount of said SiC single crystal. 2 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein cooling of said seed crystal holder is promoted in accordance with an increase in the pulling length of said SiC single crystal. 3 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein cooling of said seed crystal holder is controlled by the temperature of cooling water.
