Abstract
Since the dense and high purity pyrolytic-carbon-coated layer is formed with a thickness of 10-100 &mgr;m on the surface of the C/C composite, even when metallic impurities of the inside C/C composite are 5-100 ppm in ash content, similar effects to those of a known crucible made of the C/C composite whose inside was subjected to high purification can be produced to achieve full applicability to the structural elements of the CZ apparatus. Also, since the process time required or the C/C composite itself to be subjected to the high purification can be shortened, the effect of reducing the manufacturing costs considerably can be obtained.
