Abstract

Provided is a method for growing a silicon ingot. According to an exemplary method, the method includes charging silicon in a quartz crucible, melting the silicon by heating the quartz crucible and applying a magnetic field of 500 Gauss or higher in the quartz crucible, and growing a single crystalline silicon ingot from the melted silicon while applying a magnetic field lower than 500 Gauss in the quartz crucible. As a result, by appropriately controlling the internal pressure of the quartz crucible or the application time and the magnitude of the magnetic field, it is possible to easily accelerate crystallization of the internal surface of the quartz crucible to thereby prevent flaking of the crystals. Consequently, it is possible to grow the silicon ingot of good properties.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a semiconductor manufacturing process, and more particularly, to a semiconductor chip manufacturing process. Background technique [0002] Silicon (Si) chips are typically manufactured by growing single crystal silicon using the Czochralski process. The Czochralski process is a method for growing single crystal silicon by melting polycrystalline silicon in a quartz crucible to prepare a silicon melt, dipping a silicon seed crystal mounted on a cable into the silicon In the melt, the wire was slowly pulled up while rotating the wire to obtain a cylindrical monocrystalline silicon block. This monocrystalline silicon block is called a silicon ingot. Silicon chips are prepared by cutting slices of the silicon ingot perpendicular to the crystal growth direction, grinding to remove damage caused during slicing, and polishing to provide higher flatness to the rough chip surface. Therefore, in order to manufacture high-quali...
