Zusammenfassung:Crystal pulling apparatus for continuous pulling of silicon ingots in which an oxygen-containing crucible may be eliminated are disclosed. A solid silicon support having three indentations is used to hold pools of molten silicon. Silicon is added to a melting pool and weirs over into a stabilization pool and further weirs over into a growth pool from which a silicon ingot is grown.
