ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for the closed-loop controlled growth of crystalline material by the Czochralski technique includes means for establishing a melt of a given crystallisable material, means for pulling a crystal from said melt when established, said means for pulling incorporating a rigid elongated pulling member defining a crystal pulling axis, means for rotating said pulling member about said crystal pulling axis and a weighing cell located at the end of said pulling member distant from said means for establishing a melt and capable of providing, for the purpose of closed-loop control of said crystal pulled, a signal related to the force along said crystal pulling axis on the pulling member.
The weighing cell is preferably one of the kind having a spring and a transducer arranged to produce an electrical output related to the tension of the spring. The pulling member is preferably freely suspended from the weighing cell by a coupling which allows the pulling member to be rotated without rotating the weighing cell.
