An alloy semiconductor Si 1−x Ge x (x~0.5) crystal was grown by the TLZ method in microgravity. Ge concentration was 48.5±1.5at% for the whole region of 10mm diameter and 17.2mm long crystal. Compositional uniformity was established but the average concentration was a little deviated from the expected 50at%. For further improving compositional uniformity and for obtaining Si 0.5 Ge 0.5 crystals in microgravity, growth conditions were refined based on the measured axial compositional profile. In determining new growth conditions, difference in temperature gradient in a melt, difference in freezing interface curvature, and difference in melt back length of a seed between microgravity and terrestrial growth were taken into consideration.
