SILICON WAFER AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a method for producing a silicon wafer from a defect-free silicon single crystal grown by a CZ method, the method comprising: preparing a silicon wafer obtained by slicing the defect-free silicon single crystal and subjected to mirror-polishing; then performing a heat treatment step of subjecting the mirror-polished silicon wafer to heat treatment at a temperature of 500° C. or higher but 600° C. or lower for 4 hours or more but 6 hours or less; and performing a repolishing step of repolishing the silicon wafer after the heat treatment step such that a polishing amount becomes 1.5μm or more. Therefore, it is an object to provide a method by which a silicon wafer can be produced at a high yield, the silicon wafer in which LPDs are reduced to a minimum, the silicon wafer with a low failure-incidence rate in an inspection step and a shipment stage.
