Abstract
A SiC single crystal manufacturing method whereby growing speed improvement required to have high productivity can be achieved, while maintaining flat growth in which uniform single crystal growth can be continued at the time of growing a SiC single crystal using a solution method. In the method, a SiC single crystal is grown in a crucible from a Si solution containing C. The method includes alternately repeating: a high supersaturation degree growing period, in which the growth is promoted by maintaining the supersaturation degree of C in the Si solution higher than an upper limit critical value at which flat growth can be maintained, the supersaturation degree being at a growing interface between the Si solution and a SiC single crystal being grown; and a low supersaturation degree growing period, in which the growth is promoted by maintaining the supersaturation degree lower than the critical value.
