Abstract :
In summary, we have presented a novel wafer-level Hall mobility (μH) measurement methodology which can be implemented in any conventional wafer prober (no specialized equipment needed). In addition, we demonstrated a simple RSD extraction scheme with verifiable accuracy. Both techniques work directly on a single ultrascaled MOSFET, providing an elegant solution to two very difficult but important measurements. The authors acknowledge the Office of Microelectronic Programs at NIST for financial support.
