Abstract

See full text

Provided is a method for growing a silicon ingot. According to an exemplary method, the method includes charging silicon in a quartz crucible, melting the silicon by heating the quartz crucible and applying a magnetic field of 500 Gauss or higher in the quartz crucible, and growing a single crystalline silicon ingot from the melted silicon while applying a magnetic field lower than 500 Gauss in the quartz crucible. As a result, by appropriately controlling the internal pressure of the quartz crucible or the application time and the magnitude of the magnetic field, it is possible to easily accelerate crystallization of the internal surface of the quartz crucible to thereby prevent flaking of the crystals. Consequently, it is possible to grow the silicon ingot of good properties.
