Provided are a thin film silicon wafer having high gettering capability, a manufacturing method therefor, a multi-layered silicon wafer formed by laminating the thin film silicon wafers, and a manufacturing method therefor. The thin film silicon wafer is manufactured by: forming one or more gettering layers immediately below a device layer which is formed in a vicinity of a front surface of a semiconductor silicon wafer; fabricating a device in the device layer of the semiconductor silicon wafer; and after the device has been fabricated, removing part of the semiconductor silicon wafer from a rear surface thereof to immediately below the gettering layers so as to leave at least one of the gettering layers in place. As a result, the thin film silicon wafer is allowed to have gettering capability even after having been reduced in thickness to be in a thin film form.

According to the invention, it is sought to provide a method of evaluating single crystal of silicon, which permits determination of the amount of precipitated oxygen of even a sample having been heat treated and with unknown initial interstitial oxygen concentration. X-rays radiated from X-ray source 7 is converted by slit 6 into a thin, parallel incident X-ray beam 3 to be incident on sample single crystal 1. After adjusting the angle .theta.1 of sample with respect to the incident X-ray beam such as to satisfy Bragg conditions, diffracted X-rays 4 produced by diffraction on the sample single crystal 1 are coupled from the back side thereof through X-ray receiving slit 8 to scintillator 5 for intensity measurement. The amount of precipitated oxygen is calculated from the measured diffracted X-ray intensity.

A lifetime related quality evaluation method, used with a semiconductor wafer having a semiconductor thin layer over the main surface of a semiconductor substrate, for evaluating the lifetime related quality of the semiconductor thin layer and/or the vicinity thereof, characterized by: generating electron-hole pairs in the vicinity of a surface of the semiconductor thin layer by the use of excitation light having a larger energy than the band gap of a semiconductor to be tested; then detecting the intensity at a particular wavelength of light emitted by recombination of the electron-hole pairs; and evaluating the lifetime related quality of the semiconductor thin layer and/or the vicinity thereof based on the detected intensity. The lifetime related quality evaluation method realizes a non-contact, non-destructive quality evaluation of the epitaxial semiconductor wafer.

A semiconductor light emitting device comprising an n-type GaAs substrate, a light emitting layer portion consisting of an AlGaInP double heterojunction structure formed on the substrate, and a p-type current spreading layer formed on the light emitting layer portion, wherein the p-type current spreading layer comprises an undoped current spreading layer and a heavily-doped current spreading layer formed on said undoped current spreading layer. With this construction, it is possible to achieve a stable control of carrier concentration in a p-type cladding layer, to prevent deterioration of the interface between the p-type cladding layer and an active layer and also to prevent crystallinty-deterioration of the active layer with the result that the emission intensity of the device can be increased to a considerable extent.
