Abstract

The kinetics of oxygen precipitation at 900 and 1050°C was studied in Czochralski-grown silicon single crystals doped to various levels with zirconium. It is established that zirconium, while not participating in the nucleation of oxygen precipitates, decreases the concentration of interstitial oxygen in the crystals.
