Description
The 4-pt-probe allows for sheet resistance measurements of Si or Ge films or substrates (no metals). Samples are loaded via vacuum wand onto the stage. Manual translational and rotational movements allow measurements at different sample locations.

Best forAnnealed in-situ doped or dopant-implanted Si and Ge films
Limitations
Characteristics/FOM
Caution withProbing current ranges must be adjusted according to the doping level of the film. Thin film measurements require a pn junction below the film to be measured.
Machine Charges2/hour
