Abstract
Provided is a polycrystalline silicon rod suitable as a raw material for production of single-crystalline silicon. A crystal piece (evaluation sample) is collected from a polycrystalline silicon rod grown by a Siemens method, and a polycrystalline silicon rod in which an area ratio of a crystal grain having a particle size of 100 nm or less is 3% or more is sorted out as the raw material for production of single-crystalline silicon. When single-crystalline silicon is grown by an FZ method using the polycrystalline silicon rod as a raw material, the occurrence of dislocation is remarkably suppressed.
