ABSTRACT:
A process is disclosed for continuously producing a single crystal by drawing downwardly a melt of a single crystal raw material, wherein a single crystal body grown from the melt is continuously pulled downwardly, and a plurality of single crystal products are continuously formed by intermittently cutting the single crystal body being downwardly moved.
