Abstract
An ingot evaluation method and a detecting apparatus are provided. Defect information of a wafer is obtained from an ingot. The defect information includes a position of at least one defect identified by optical detection. A center-of-gravity position of the defect is determined according to the defect information. Uniformity of the defect is evaluated according to the center-of-gravity position. The uniformity is related to quality of a processed wafer.
