Abstract

A process for producing a doped silicon single crystal, comprising after-doping the melt during the pulling process with a quantity of volatile dopant ΔN(t), calculated according to the equationΔ()=()=·(1−)or according to the approximation equationΔ()=·λwhere λis an evaporation coefficient which describes process-specific evaporation behavior of the foreign substance and which is obtained after a resistance profile R(t) of a further single crystal has been measured and calculated according to the equation()=,where Ris a starting resistivity and the further single crystal is pulled under the same process conditions without being after-doped with the foreign substance.
