  • Patent number: 8298926
    Abstract: A method for making a silicon wafer includes the steps of generating and stabilizing embryos that become oxygen precipitates by succeeding thermal annealing applied during a semiconductor device manufacturing process. In the silicon wafer, embryos are substantially removed in a denuded zone, and embryos are distributed at a relatively higher concentration in a bulk region. Also, by controlling behaviors of embryos, a silicon wafer having a desired concentration profile of oxygen precipitates by succeeding thermal annealing is manufactured with high reliability and reproducibility.

    Abstract: A wafer support pin has a front end contacted with a wafer such that the front end is flat or rounded. Thus, gravitational stress is minimized during annealing the wafer, thereby minimizing slip dislocation. This wafer support pin is suitably used for annealing of a wafer, particularly high temperature rapid thermal annealing of a large-diameter wafer.

  • Patent number: 7732352
    Abstract: By using a two-step RTP (rapid thermal processing) process, the wafer is provided which has an ideal semiconductor device region secured by controlling fine oxygen precipitates and OiSFs (Oxidation Induced Stacking Fault) located on the surface region of the wafer. By performing the disclosed two-step rapid thermal process, the distribution of defects can be accurately controlled and an ideal device active zone can be formed up to a certain distance from the surfaces of the wafer. In addition, it is possible to maximize the internal gettering (IG) efficiency by enabling the oxygen precipitates and the bulk stacking faults to have constant densities in the depth direction in an internal region of the wafer, that is, the bulk region. In order to obtain the constant concentration profile of the oxygen precipitates and the bulk stacking faults in the bulk region, the wafer is subjected to the aforementioned two-step rapid thermal process in a predetermined mixed gas atmosphere.
