Abstract

Disclosed are a method and an apparatus for preparing a polycrystalline silicon rod using a mixed core means, comprising: installing a first core means made of a resistive material together with a second core means made of silicon material in an inner space of a deposition reactor; electrically heating the first core means and pre-heating the second core by the first core means which is electrically heated; electrically heating the preheated second core means; and supplying a reaction gas into the inner space in a state where the first core means and the second core means are electrically heated for silicon deposition.
