ABSTRACT:
The average density and scattered light intensity or the average density and average size of void defects contained in a surface region in a predetermined depth of a semiconductor wafer sample are measured. An ingot whose a semiconductor wafer sample satisfies D.times.Is.ltoreq.a predetermined value between the measured average density D and scattered light intensity Is or satisfies D.times.L.sup.3 .ltoreq.fixed value between the measured average density D and average size L is extracted and wafers cut from the ingot are annealed. The semiconductor wafers having few residual defects in a surface region wherein devices are to be formed can be obtained.
