Single Crystal Production Apparatus

摘要

A single crystal production apparatus including a chamber housing a crucible and a heater, to which at least part of the heater is connected, a strain buffering support member connected to the chamber in a manner capable of being horizontally displaced while supporting the chamber in the perpendicular direction, and a base member to which a crucible support shaft and a seed crystal support shaft are directly connected and the chamber is connected via the strain buffering support member, wherein the rigidity of the base member is larger than the rigidity of the strain buffering support member, the chamber has a through hole, the crucible support shaft and the seed crystal support shaft are inserted into the through hole, and the gap between the crucible support shaft and the through hole and the gap between the seed crystal support shaft and the through hole are sealed by a sealing member.

1. A single crystal production apparatus comprising;
a crucible, a heater surrounding the periphery of said crucible, a crucible support shaft connected to the bottom of said crucible, a seed crystal support shaft facing said crucible, a chamber housing said crucible and said heater, to which at least part of said heater is connected, a strain buffering support member connected to said chamber in a manner capable of being horizontally displaced while supporting said chamber in the perpendicular direction, and a base member to which said crucible support shaft and said seed crystal support shaft are directly connected and said chamber is connected via said strain buffering support member,wherein
the rigidity of said base member is larger than the rigidity of said strain buffering support member, said chamber has a through hole, said crucible support shaft and said seed crystal support shaft are inserted into said through hole, and the gap between said crucible support shaft and said through hole and the gap between said seed crystal support shaft and said through hole are sealed by a sealing member.
