ABSTRACT:
Dopant atoms are diffused into a silicon wafer by heating the entirety of the silicon wafer with the dopant atoms to a predetermined diffusing temperature in a short period of time, and more specifically, by applying light onto the silicon wafer under such conditions that the temperature difference between a central part of the silicon wafer and its peripheral part is maintained within 65.degree. C. The above diffusion method permits to carry out diffusion of the dopant atoms into silicon wafers with high productivity but without inducing physical defects such as warping or slip lines. It requires a very short time period for effecting diffusion to a desired extent and it enables to make the depth of diffusion greater.
