Process for production of silicon single crystal

摘要

In growing a silicon monocrystal from a silicon melt added with an N-type dopant by Czochralski method, the monocrystal is grown such that a relationship represented by a formula (1) as follows is satisfied. In the formula (1): a dopant concentration in the silicon melt is represented by C (atoms/cm3); an average temperature gradient of the grown monocrystal is represented by Gave(K/mm); a pulling-up speed is represented by V (mm/min); and a coefficient corresponding to a kind of the dopant is represented by A. By growing the silicon monocrystal under a condition shown in the left to a critical line G1, occurrence of abnormal growth due to compositional supercooling can be prevented.
