Abstract

A silicon wafer for a crystal detector [see Group XL (c)] is cut from a block of high purity crystallized silicon, the upper surface is optically finished, the wafer is heated in an oxydising atmosphere in a furnace maintained at 1050 DEG C. until, e.g. after four hours, an upper crust of silicon dioxide is formed. The crust is dissolved in hydrofluoric acid to expose a thin layer of chemically pure silicon which is integral with the wafer and which has the desired electrical properties. Specifications 577,181, 578,116, 581,130, 590,458 and 594,394 are referred to.
