<p>Provided is a seed crystal for pulling a silicon single crystal that can reduce generation of slip dislocation due to thermal shock that occurs at the time of contact with a silicon melt, suppress propagation of this slip dislocation, and eliminate dislocation even though a diameter of a neck portion is larger than that in conventional examples. The seed crystal for pulling a silicon single crystal according to the present invention is an improvement in a seed crystal used for pulling a silicon single crystal based on a CZ method, and its characteristics configuration lies in that the seed crystal is cut out from a silicon single crystal pulled from a carbon-doped silicon melt and a concentration of carbon with which the seed crystal is doped is in the range of 5×10 15 to 5×10 17 atoms/cm 3 .</p> |
