Silicon wafers doped with nitrogen, hydrogen and carbon, have a plurality of voids, wherein 50% or more of the total number of voids are bubble-like shaped aggregates of voids; a V1 region having a void density of over 2×104/cm3 and below 1×105/cm3 which occupies 20% or less of the total area of the silicon wafer; a V2 region having a void density of 5×102 to 2×104/cm3 which occupies 80% or more of the total area of said silicon wafer; and a bulk micro defect density which is 5×108/cm3 or more, have excellent GOI characteristics and a high C-mode pass rate. The wafers are cut from a single crystal pulled by a method in which carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen dopants are controlled, and the crystal is subjected to rapid cooling.
