Abstract

A crystal growth method, including providing a seed crystal in a crystal growth furnace, and forming a crystal on the seed crystal along a first direction after multiple time points, is provided. The crystal includes multiple sub-crystals stacked along the first direction, a corresponding one of the sub-crystals is formed at each of the time points, and the sub-crystals include multiple end surfaces away from the seed crystal, so that a difference value of maximum temperatures of any two of the end surfaces is less than or equal to 20 degrees. A wafer is also provided.
