In step (4), step (9), the width range of peripheral position exposure is 0.5 millimeter to 30 millimeters.
Silicon wafer film growing method of the present invention, the film middle position of product grown above silicon can be made through first time film growth consistent with the film thickness of peripheral position with second time film growth, reduce the failure rate of product silicon chips periphery chip, improve the rate of finished products of product.
