Abstract
A method for heat-treating a silicon wafer is provided in which in-plane uniformity in BMD density along a diameter of a bulk of the wafer grown by the CZ process can be improved. Further, a method for heat-treating a silicon wafer is provided in which in-plane uniformity in BMD size can also be improved and COP of a surface layer of the wafer can be reduced. The method includes a step of a first heat treatment in which the CZ silicon wafer is heated to a temperature from 1325 to 1400° C. in an oxidizing gas atmosphere, held at the temperature, and then cooled at a cooling rate of from 50 to 250° C./second, and a step of a second heat treatment in which the wafer is heated to a temperature from 900 to 1200° C. in a non-oxidizing gas atmosphere, held at the temperature, and then cooled.
