Abstract
In order to provide a vitreous silica crucible which does not employ a crystallization accelerator but is difficult to deform during its use even under high temperature, and is easily manufactured, there is provided a vitreous silica crucible for pulling single-crystal silicon wherein the outer surface layer is formed of a bubble-containing vitreous silica layer, the inner surface layer is formed of a vitreous silica layer whose bubbles are invisible to the naked eye, a surface of the outer surface layer includes an unmelted or half-melted silica layer (abbreviated as a half-melted silica layer), and the center line average roughness (Ra) of the half-melted silica layer is 50 to 200 μm, also preferably, and the thickness of the half-melted silica layer is 0.5 to 2.0 mm.
