Equipment Description:

The CDE-ResMap178 is a semi-automatic 4-point probe tool to measure the sheet resistance of a thin film or bulk wafer. The sample is manually loaded into the tool then measurements are performed automatically through a selected recipe.

System Features:

  • Manual load wafer handing
  • 2″-8″ round wafer size
  • 1 second per site typical measurement time
  • 2 mΩ/□ - 5 MΩ/□ measurement range
  • <0.02% Repeatability (one sigma)
  • <0.05% (using NIST traceable ResCal standards) accuracy
  • 1.5 mm minimum edge exclusion
  • Plotting function in ResMap tool or data can be exported (e.g. Excel)
