Abstract
The invention provides a method of detecting crystallographic defects, comprising: sampling wafer of an ingot in complying with a predetermined wafer sampling frequency; identifying crystallographic defects of the wafer to show the crystallographic defects of the wafer; characterizing observation of the crystallographic defects of the wafer and extracting a value characterizing the crystallographic defects; through a result of characterizing the crystallographic defects, obtaining a radial distribution of density of the wafer and categorizing the crystallographic defects; and obtaining an isogram of the crystallographic defects of the wafer to show a crystallographic defect distribution of the whole ingot according to the value characterizing the crystallographic defects and categories of the crystallographic defects. It is no need to break the ingot to obtain the crystallographic defect distribution of the whole ingot, through which the technology for growing the ingot may be effectively adjusted to obtain the ingot with required characteristics of defect.
