ABSTRACT:
A process and an apparatus reduces the oxygen incorporation into a single crystal of silicon which is drawn by the Czochralski method. If a molding is immersed at least temporarily in the melt between the single crystal and the crucible wall during drawing of the single crystal, the oxygen content of the single crystal is reduced compared with the oxygen content of a single crystal which has been drawn without the use of the molding.
