    摘要: After determining the precipitated oxygen concentration and the residual oxygen concentration in a silicon wafer after heat treatment performed in a device fabrication process; the critical shear stress τcri at which slip dislocations are formed in the silicon wafer in the device fabrication process is determined based on the obtained precipitated oxygen concentration and residual oxygen concentration; and the obtained critical shear stress and the thermal stress τ applied to the silicon wafer in the heat treatment of the device fabrication process are compared, thereby determining that slip dislocations are formed in the silicon wafer in the device fabrication process when the thermal stress τ is equal to or more than the critical shear stress τcri, or determining that slip dislocations are not formed in the silicon wafer in the device fabrication process when the thermal stress τ is less than the critical shear stress τcri.

    摘要: This invention includes a system and a method for growing crystals including a batch auto-feeding mechanism. The proposed system and method provide a minimization of compositional segregation effect during crystal growth by controlling growth rate involving a high-temperature flow control system operable in an open and a closed loop crystal growth process. The ability to control the growth rate without corresponding loss of volatilize-able elements enables significantly improvement in compositional homogeneity and a consequent increase in crystal yield. This growth system and method can be operated in production scale, simultaneously for a plurality of growth crucibles to further the reduction of manufacturing costs, particularly for the crystal materials of binary or ternary systems with volatile components, such as Lead (Pb) and Indium (In).
