    摘要: A method for evaluating metal contamination of a silicon single crystal grown by the Czochralski method using a pulling apparatus in which a voltage can be applied between a crystal suspending member and a crucible comprises the steps of: setting the crystal suspending member as a negative electrode while setting the crucible as a positive electrode in a process for growing a non-convertible portion of the silicon single crystal; applying the voltage; collecting a sample from the non-convertible portion grown in association with the voltage application; and evaluating the metal contamination of the sample by an analysis in which Surface Photo Voltage method is adopted. In a process for growing an end-product convertible portion of the silicon single crystal, the voltage is applied such that the crystal suspending member is set as the positive electrode while the crucible is set as the negative electrode, or the voltage is not applied.

    摘要: By determining a control direction of a pulling-up velocity without using a position or a width of an OSF region as an index, a subsequent pulling-up velocity profile is fed back and adjusted. A silicon single crystal ingot that does not include a COP and a dislocation cluster is grown by a CZ method, a silicon wafer is sliced from the silicon single crystal ingot, reactive ion etching is performed on the silicon wafer in an as-grown state, and a grown-in defect including silicon oxide is exposed as a protrusion on an etching surface. A growing condition in subsequent growing is fed back and adjusted on the basis of an exposed protrusion generation region. As a result, feedback with respect to a nearest batch can be performed without performing heat treatment to expose a defect.

    摘要: A method of making a single-crystalline Si wafer with an approximately polygonal cross section and having a material property that is the same as a zone-pulled Si crystal, and the single-crystalline Si wafer. The method includes pulling at least one bottle neck of a crystal vertically downwards from a rotating hanging melt drop. The rotational speed of the crystal is reduced to between 0 and less than 1 rpm. In a crystal-growth phase, a Si single crystal ingot is pulled vertically downwards with an approximately polygonal cross section. An inductor is used to generate a temperature profile at a growth phase boundary of the crystal that corresponds to the shape of a cross section of the pulled Si single crystal ingot. The growth is ended at a desired pulling length and the Si single crystal ingot is cut into wafers having an approximately polygonal cross section.

    摘要: Semiconductor wafers of silicon are produced by pulling a single crystal from a melt contained in a crucible and slicing semiconductor wafers from the pulled single crystal, heat being delivered to a center of the growing single crystal at the boundary with the melt during the pulling of the single crystal, a CUSP magnetic field applied such that a neutral surface of the CUSP magnetic field intersects a pulling axis of the single crystal at a distance of at least 50 mm from a surface of the melt. An apparatus suitable therefore contains a CUSP field positioned such that a neutral field intersects the axis of the crystal in the crucible 50 mm or more from the melt surface.
