Contactless Mobility

CM

Description

The LEI 1600 Mobility Measurement System has the capability of measuring various semiconductor transport properties, which include mobility, sheet charge density and sheet resistance via a non-contact measurement method.

This tool utilizes a 10GHz microwave source to interrogate wafers coated with conductive thin films. The forward and reflected RF power values as a function of external magnetic field (0-10kG) are used in an extremely complicated model to attempt calculation of carrier concentration, mobility, and sheet resistance.
