Abstract:
An object of the invention is to provide a quartz glass crucible for pulling up silicon single crystal and a method for producing the same, suitable for improving the productivity of the crucible and the quality of the silicon single crystal, which, by forming a crystalline layer on the inner surface of the quartz glass crucible during pulling up silicon single crystal, prevents degradation from occurring on the inner surface of the crucible and increases the ratio of single crystal while preventing the dislocation from forming on the single crystals. The objects above have been accomplished by a quartz glass crucible, having a double layered structure comprising a naturally occurring quartz glass outer layer (3) and a synthetic quartz glass inner layer (4), said synthetic quartz glass inner layer (4) contains at least one type of an alkali metal ion selected from the group consisting of Na ion, K ion, and Li ion, which is diffused or moved from said naturally occurring quartz glass outer layer (3) into said synthetic quartz glass inner layer (4).

An object of the present invention is to overcome the problems of the prior art technique, and to provide a heat treatment method as well as a heat treatment apparatus capable of heat treating, with higher efficiency, a synthetic quartz glass for optical use having higher homogeneity and higher purity. Another object of the present invention is to provide an a synthetic quartz glass for optical use. The problems above are solved by, in a method for heat treating a flat cylindrical synthetic quartz glass body provided as the object to be heat treated in a heating furnace, a method for heat treating a synthetic quartz glass for optical use comprising preparing a vessel made of quartz glass and having a flat cylindrical space for setting therein the object synthetic quartz glass body, placing two or more object synthetic quartz glass bodies into the vessel in parallel with each other, filling the space with SiO2 powder, setting the vessel inside the heating furnace with its lid closed, and applying the heat treatment to the vessel.
Abstract:
In a prior art method for producing a quartz glass body, SiO2 particles are deposited on the cylindrical outer surface of a cylindrical mandrel (4), which rotates around the longitudinal axis thereof, while forming an essentially cylindrical porous blank (1), whereby a holding element (12) made of quartz glass is provided in the area of one of the ends of said blank (1). The aim of the invention is to improve, based on existing methods, the reproducibility of the properties of the products made of the quartz glass body. To this end, the invention provides that a holding element (2) is used which has a metastable OH content of less than 30 ppm by weight, and that the holding element (2) is subjected to a thermal pretreatment. A suitable holding element (2) for holding a blank made of quartz glass is characterized in that it is comprised of quartz glass that has a metastable OH content of less than 30 ppm by weight.
