Abstract
A manufacturing method of a single crystal uses a single-crystal pull-up apparatus includes: adding the red phosphorus to the silicon melt so that a resistivity of the single crystal falls in a range from 0.7 mΩ·cm to 0.9 mΩ·cm; subjecting an evaluation silicon wafer obtained from the single crystal to a heat treatment in which the evaluation silicon wafer is heated at 1200 degrees C. for 30 seconds in a hydrogen atmosphere; and pull-up the single crystal while appropriately controlling a period for a temperature of the single crystal to be in a range of 570±70 degrees C. so that the number of pits generated on the evaluation silicon wafer becomes 0.1/cmor less.
