Abstract

A silicon carbide ingot producing method is provided. The method produces a silicon carbide ingot in which an internal space of a reactor is depressurized and heated to create a predetermined difference in temperature between upper and lower portions of the internal space. The method produces a silicon carbide ingot in which a plane of a seed crystal corresponding to the rear surface of the silicon carbide ingot is lost minimally. Additionally, the method produces a silicon carbide ingot with few defects and good crystal quality.
