Abstract
In a method for growing a silicon carbide single crystal on a silicon carbide single crystal substrate by contacting the substrate with a solution containing C prepared by dissolving C into the melt that contains Cr and X, which consists of at least one element of Ce and Nd, such that a proportion of Cr in a whole composition of the melt is in a range of 30 to 70 at. %, and a proportion of X in the whole composition of the melt is in a range of 0.5 at. % to 20 at. % in the case where X is Ce, or in a range of 1 at. % to 25 at. % in the case where X is Nd, and the silicon carbide single crystal is grown from the solution.
