An epitaxial wafer and a method of fabricating an epitaxial wafer, the method including providing a semiconductor substrate doped with both boron and germanium such that a sum of boron concentration and germanium concentration is at least 8.5E+18 atoms/cm3 and the germanium concentration is 6 times or less the boron concentration; forming an epitaxial layer on the semiconductor substrate such that the semiconductor substrate and the epitaxial layer constitute the epitaxial wafer; and annealing the epitaxial wafer for 1 hour or longer at a temperature of 1,000° C. or less.
