Abstract
We have observed dislocations in a CZ‐silicon crystal using step‐scanning white X‐ray section topography and examined the feature of the dislocation images reconstructed by stacking 200 shots of sec‐ tion topographs. These topographs were obtained from symmetric 004‐reflection in the Laue case using 20, 30, and 60 keV X‐rays. Direct images, intermediary images, and dynamical images of dislocations were observed in a tomogram, i.e., a sliced image obtained from the stacked section topographs, and the contrast of the dynamical images was reduced with increasing X‐ray energy. The stacked section topographs provided three‐dimensional images of the dislocations based on the direct images, and the sliced image enabled us to observe the dislocations separately in a highly dislocated region of the CZ‐silicon crystal.
