ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a method for producing an epitaxial silicon single crystal wafer comprising the steps of growing a silicon single crystal ingot wherein nitrogen is doped by Czochralski method, slicing the silicon single crystal ingot to provide a silicon single crystal wafer, and forming an epitaxial layer in the surface layer portion of the silicon single crystal wafer. There can be manufactured easily and in high productivity an epitaxial silicon monocrystal wafer which has high gettering capability when a substrate having a low boron concentration is used, a low concentration of heavy metal impurity, and an excellent crystallinity.
