ARSENIC DOPANTS FOR PULLING OF SILICON SINGLE CRYSTAL, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THEREOF AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SILICON SINGLE CRYSTAL USING THEREOF
Silicon single crystal is pulled by the Czochralski method, using an As dopant comprising a mixed sintered compact of arsenic and silicon, the molar ratio of silicon being not smaller than 35% and not greater than 55% relative to arsenic.

7 . A process for producing a silicon single crystal which comprises:
a step of filling a crucible with raw material silicon, melting the silicon to form raw material silicon melt;
a step of introducing an As dopant comprising a mixed sintered compact of granular or powdery arsenic and silicon, the molar ratio of silicon being not smaller than 35% and not greater than 55% relative to arsenic, into the raw material silicon melt and melting the As dopant; and
a step of growing the silicon single crystal by allowing seed crystal of silicon single crystal to contact the raw material silicon melt containing the dissolved As dopant.
