Abstract

See full text

An epitaxial wafer comprises a silicon substrate wafer having first and second sides, and a silicon epitaxial layer deposited on the first side, and optionally one or more additional epitaxial layers on top of the silicon epitaxial layer, at least one of the silicon epitaxial layer or at least one of the one or more additional epitaxial layers being doped with nitrogen at a concentration of 1×1016 atoms/cm3 or more and 1×1020 atoms/cm3 or less. The epitaxial wafer is produced by depositing the silicon epitaxial layer and/or at least one of the one or more additional epitaxial layers, at a deposition temperature of 940° C. or less through chemical vapor deposition in the presence of a deposition gas atmosphere containing one or more silicon precursor compounds and one or more nitrogen precursor compounds.
