GB/T 19444-2025 is the English-translated version of 硅片氧沉淀特性的测试 间隙氧含量减少法.

GB/T 19444-2025 is the Chinese national standard covering how much oxygen comes out of solution in a silicon wafer — the heat treatment of the sample, the interstitial oxygen measured by infrared absorption before and after it, the difference between the two taken as the amount precipitated, which governs whether the wafer getters metal impurities away from the device layer, the interference factors, the sample preparation, the data processing, and the precision. Issued on 30 June 2025, it has been in force since 1 January 2026, replacing GB/T 19444-2004.

Testing of silicon wafer oxygen precipitation characteristics Interstitial oxygen content reduction method

1 Scope

This document describes a method for testing the oxygen precipitation characteristics of silicon wafers by measuring the reduction in interstitial oxygen content before and after thermal treatment of the wafers.

This document applies to n-type silicon single crystals with room temperature resistivity greater than 0.1ohm-cm and p-type silicon with room temperature resistivity greater than 0.5ohm-cm Testing of oxygen precipitation characteristics of single wafers.

3 Terms and Definitions

The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 14264 and the following apply to this document.

3.1 oxygen precipitation

During the crystal growth and subsequent heat treatment stages, oxygen atoms between the lattices react with silicon and other impurities in the silicon crystal to form oxygen deposits. Accumulation of things.

3.2 Initial oxygen content initialoxygencontent

Interstitial oxygen content of silicon single wafer without heat treatment process.

3.3 Final oxygen content finaloxygencontent

Interstitial oxygen content of silicon single wafer after heat treatment process.

3.4

The difference between the initial oxygen content and the final oxygen content.

4 Principles

The sample was heat treated and the interstitial oxygen content of the sample before and after heat treatment was tested by infrared absorption method. The difference was regarded as The amount of interstitial oxygen precipitation is used to characterize the oxygen precipitation characteristics of the sample.
