Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes determining information that indicates an extrinsic dopant concentration and an intrinsic oxygen concentration in a semiconductor wafer. On the basis of information about the extrinsic dopant concentration and the intrinsic oxygen concentration as well as information about a generation rate or a dissociation rate of oxygen-related thermal donors in the semiconductor wafer, a process temperature gradient is determined for generating or dissociating oxygen-related thermal donors to compensate for a difference between a target dopant concentration and the extrinsic dopant concentration.
