Zusammenfassung:To provide a method of manufacturing silicon wafers having a low oxygen concentration and being provided with the gettering capability of heavy metals even when the density of BMD is low. The method includes a step of placing wafers sliced from a silicon single crystal and having an oxygen concentration in the range of 1×1016 atoms/cm3 to 7×1017 atoms/cm3, in a chamber and a step of performing rapid thermal processing at a maximum temperature reached of not less than 1250° C. or not more than 1350° C. after introducing a mixed gas having an oxygen partial pressure in the range of 1% to 10% of oxygen and an inert gas.
