A novel device for producing a single crystal by the CZ or MCZ method is provided, which comprising a crucible for containing silicon melt therein, a wire reel and a wire for pulling a single crystal, a motor and a rotation shaft for rotating the crucible, a speed change device being inserted between the motor and the rotation shaft, and, if necessary, a magnetic field generator, by which the magnetic field is applied to the melt. According to the device for producing a single crystal, the rotation accuracy of a crucible can be improved, so that the concentrations of impurities in the pulled single crystal can be highly precisely controlled.
