  • Abstract
    An improved methodology for MOSFETs access resistance extraction using Kelvin test structures is presented. By a drastic reduction of the influence of the device stochastic variations, along with an improved methodology for sub 50nm technologies, one site fast inline extraction can be performed with precision, allowing measurement of systematic series resistance variations on wafer.
