    摘要: A silicon epitaxial layer is formed on the semiconductor underlayer of a target substrate (W) in the process chamber (2). This forming method includes a pressure reducing step of reducing the pressure inside the process chamber (2) accommodating the target substrate (W), a vapor phase growth step of introducing a film formation gas containing silane gas into the process chamber (2) to grow a silicon epitaxial layer on the semiconductor underlayer, and a hydrogen chloride treatment step and a hydrogen heat treatment step performed therebetween. The hydrogen chloride treatment step is arranged to introduce the first pre-treatment gas containing hydrogen chloride gas into the process chamber (2), thereby treating the atmosphere inside the process chamber (2). The hydrogen heat treatment step is arranged to introduce the second pre-treatment gas containing hydrogen gas into the process chamber (2), thereby treating the surface of the semiconductor underlayer.

    摘要: A method for heat treatment of a silicon wafer in a reducing atmosphere through use of a rapid thermal annealer (RTA) is provided. In the method, the silicon wafer is heat-treated at a temperature of 1150° C. to 1300° C. for 1 sec to 60 sec in a mixture gas atmosphere of hydrogen and argon. Hydrogen is present in the mixture gas atmosphere in an amount of 10% to 80% by volume. Hydrogen is preferably present in the mixture gas atmosphere in an amount of 20% to 40% by volume. The method decreases COP density on the surface of the silicon wafer to thereby improve electrical characteristics, such as TZDB and TDDB, of the silicon wafer, suppresses the generation of slip dislocation to thereby prevent wafer breakage, and utilizes intrinsic advantages of the RTA, such as improvement in productivity and reduction in hydrogen gas usage.

    摘要: The disclosed apparatus weighs a grown crystal that is being pulled from melt thereof. The lower end of a rope of known weight is connected to the crystal, while the upper end of the rope is connected to the drum of a rope-winding unit. The rope-winding unit includes a driver coupled to the drum so as to rotate the drum and wind the rope thereon, and the weight of the rope-winding unit including the drum and driver is known. At least one weight sensor is coupled to the rope-winding unit so as to measure the magnitude of gravity acting on the rope-winding unit. Whereby, the weight of the grown crystal is determined by subtracting the sum of the known weights of the rope and the rope-winding unit from the measured magnitude of the gravity acting on the rope-winding unit.
