Abstract

In a semiconductor single crystalline substrate provided with a protecting film to prevent autodoping on the reverse surface thereof, for growing a vapor-phase epitaxial layer on the main obverse surface thereof, a width of a chamfer is set for locating an edge-crown occurred in consequence of a vapor-phase epitaxial growth on the chamfer, and a gap of a distance is formed between a periphery of the protecting film and an innermost part of the chamfer on the reverse surface.
