Abstract
A manufacturing method of a monocrystal includes: a shoulder-formation step to form a shoulder of the monocrystal; and a straight-body-formation step to form a straight body of the monocrystal, in which, in the shoulder-formation step, providing that a distance from a lowermost portion inside the crucible to a top surface of the dopant-added melt is defined as H (mm) and a radius of the top surface of the dopant-added melt is defined as R (mm), the shoulder starts to be formed in a condition that a relationship of 0.4<H/R<0.78 is satisfied.
