摘要:
The present invention relates to a wafer storage container which contains a semiconductor wafer one by one and provides a technology to effectively reduce adhesion of particles on semiconductor wafer surfaces during the storage of the wafer. A wafer storage container which contains a wafer one by one, includes: a wafer containing member including a domed-shape recess which abuts on a circumferential edge of the wafer and is capable of holding the wafer; and a cover member which is engaged with the wafer containing member and is capable of sealing the wafer containing member; and a wafer rear surface protection member which is formed into a shape substantially same as an opening of the domed-shape recess and comes into contact with an entire rear surface of the wafer placed so that a front surface is directed the domed-shape recess.

Provided is a semiconductor substrate for epitaxial growth which does not require any etching treatment as a pretreatment in the stage of performing an epitaxial growth of HgCdTe film. A CdTe system compound semiconductor substrate for the epitaxial growth of the HgCdTe film is housed in an inactive gas atmosphere, in a predetermined period of time (for example, 10 hours) after mirror finish treatment thereof, to thereby regulate the proportion of Te oxide of the total amount of Te on the substrate surface which is obtained by XPS measurement so as to be not more than 30%.

Provided is a CdTe-based semiconductor substrate for epitaxial growth, which is capable of growing good-quality epitaxial crystals without urging a substrate user to implement etching treatment before the epitaxial growth.A CdTe-based semiconductor substrate, in which tracks of linear polishing damage with a depth of 1 nm or more are not observed within a viewing range of 10 μm×10 μm when a surface of the substrate is observed by an atomic force microscope, and orange peel defects are not observed when the surface of the substrate is visually observed under a fluorescent lamp, can grow the good-quality epitaxial crystals.

摘要:
In a semiconductor wafer (W) having a periphery thereof chamfered, and having at least a main surface side thereof subjected to mirror finishing, an inclined surface (21) is formed on the periphery of the wafer, such that has an angle (θ) of inclination of the inclined surface (21) with respect to a main surface (10) is not smaller than 5° and not larger than 25°, and at the same time a length (L) of the same in the radial direction of the wafer is 100 μm or longer. Further, the inclined surface is configured to have a non-mirror-finished portion (21b) toward the periphery of the wafer.
