There is provided a method for manufacturing a silicon single crystal, the method includes: a raw material melting step of melting polycrystalline silicon accommodated in a crucible to obtain a silicon melt; and bringing a seed crystal into contact with the silicon melt and pulling up the seed crystal to grow the silicon single crystal, wherein, after the raw material melting step and before the pulling step, there are performed: a cristobalitizing step of leaving the silicon melt at a predetermined number of rotations of the crucible with a predetermined gas flow rate and a predetermined furnace pressure to generate cristobalite while applying a magnetic field; and a dissolving step of partially dissolving the cristobalite by carrying out any one of an increase in number of rotations of the crucible, an increase in gas flow rate, and a reduction in furnace pressure beyond counterpart figures in the cristobalitizing step. |
