Abstract
A method of measuring the concentration of Fe in a p-type silicon wafer by an SPV method enabling improvement in the measurement accuracy for Fe concentrations of 1×10/cmor less. The method of measuring the concentration of Fe in a p-type silicon wafer includes measuring an Fe concentration in the p-type silicon wafer based on measurement using an SPV method. The measurement is performed in an atmosphere in which the total concentration of Na, NH, and Kis 1.750 μg/mor less, and the total concentration of F, Cl, NO, PO, Br, NO, and SOis 0.552 μg/mor less.
