An epitaxial wafer and a high-temperature heat treatment wafer having an excellent gettering capability are obtained by performing epitaxial growth or a high-temperature heat treatment. A relational equation relating the density to the radius of an oxygen precipitate introduced in a
A method is provided capable of universally controlling the proximity gettering structure, the need for which can vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, by arbitrarily controlling an M-shaped distribution in a depth direction of a wafer BMD density after RTA in a nitrogen-containing
