- Silicon epitaxial wafers in which a dopant such as boron (B) is doped and a relatively small amount of impurities are doped on a silicon wafer having a low specific resistance to vapor-grow a silicon epitaxial layer having a high specific resistance have high gathering capability and low stretch-up. Latch-up and high slip resistance at high temperatures make it widely used as a wafer for manufacturing LSI devices as well as MOS devices.
