The invention discloses a
crystal growth device and a
crystal growth method for
gallium oxide crystal downward growth, and belongs to the technical field of
gallium oxide single crystal preparation. The device comprises a
crucible, an upper shaft, a heating mechanism and a heat preservation mechanism, the
crucible is composed of a
metal layer and an
isolation layer arranged on the inner side wall of the
metal layer, an opening is formed in the top of the
metal layer, the
thermal expansion coefficient of the side, away from the metal layer, of the
isolation layer ranges from 0.5 * 10 <-6 > k <-1 > to 2.5 * 10 <-6 > k <-1 >, and the
thermal expansion coefficient of the
isolation layer is gradually increased outwards from the side, away from the metal layer, of the isolation layer. The rising rate is 2 * 10 <-6 >-3 * 10 <-6 > k <-1 > / mm; the upper shaft is arranged above an opening of the
crucible and can lift and rotate relative to the crucible, a
seed crystal support is arranged below the upper shaft, a first cooling pipeline is arranged in the upper shaft, and a second cooling pipeline is arranged in the
seed crystal support. The
crystal growth device breaks through the limitation of a traditional
Czochralski method, a
casting method and a
Bridgman method, realizes downward growth of crystals, and can reduce the influence of crucible
metal impurities on the crystals, so that
gallium oxide single crystals with high quality,
large size and high yield are obtained.
