  • Abstract
    In this work a compact microprobe for advanced chip-inspection applications is introduced. The probe features integrated photoconductive switches for Terahertz pulse generation and detection. Device application is demonstrated for contact-free high-resolution time-domain reflectometry measurements at silicon-chip test structures.
