Abstract
A novel method for carrier lifetime characterisation that exclusively works in SOI wafers has been devised and carefully investigated. The main advantages of using the pseudo-MOS transistor (Ψ-MOSFET) transient technique are : (i) in situ operation at the wafer level, (ii) set-up simplicity, (iii) quick comparison of SOI variants for process optimization, and (iv) simple identification of the residual film doping
