Effect of Thermal History on Iron Precipitation in Crystalline Silicon
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have studied the effect of thermal history on iron precipitation behavior in intentionally contaminated Czochralski silicon wafers that contain well-defined precipitation sites for iron, oxide precipitates. Iron precipitation was studied at a temperature range between 600 C and 700 C for various times. The results indicate that iron precipitation is strongly affected by the thermal history of the wafers. Our results also explain the disagreement observed previously in iron precipitation behavior at low temperature anneals. Finally, we discuss how the results can be applied to gettering in multicrystalline silicon.

Effect of transition metals on oxygen precipitation in silicon
Effects of iron and copper impurities on the amount of precipitated oxygen and the oxide precipitate and stacking fault densities in Czochralski-grown silicon have been studied under varying thermal anneals. Silicon wafers were intentionally contaminated with iron or copper and subsequently subjected to different two-step heat treatments to induce oxygen precipitation. The iron contamination le...
