Disclosed is a mask for evaluating selective epitaxial growth process. The disclosed mask comprises a mask pattern for resistance measurement to measure sheet resistance of grown single crystal silicon in a first area, a mask pattern for selectivity evaluation to evaluate selectivity of single crystal silicon growth in a second area diagonal to the first area, mask patterns for facet generation evaluation, having different shapes, to evaluate facet generation of grown single crystal silicon in a third area, mask patterns for loading effect evaluation, having different shapes, to evaluate growth of single crystal silicon by loading effect in the upper part of a fourth area and a mask pattern for uniformity evaluation to evaluate uniformity of grown single crystal silicon in the lower part of the pattern for loading effect evaluation in the fourth area.
A mask for evaluating a selective epitaxial growth process, applied to pattern an insulating layer on wafer divided into 5 areas, comprising:
