  • Publication number: 20210358738
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing an epitaxial wafer including the steps of: preparing a silicon-based substrate having a chamfered portion in a peripheral portion; forming an annular trench in the chamfered portion of the silicon-based substrate along an internal periphery of the chamfered portion; and performing an epitaxial growth on the silicon-based substrate having the trench formed. This provides a method for manufacturing an epitaxial wafer by which a crack generated in a peripheral chamfered portion can be suppressed from extending towards the center.
