Abstract :
A two- and three-dimensional solution of the Laplace equation for the calculation of the substrate resistance for rectangular contacts is presented. After the calculations are performed for a uniform substrate, an extension is given to nonuniform doped regions. This solution makes it possible to investigate the influence of buried layers and field implementations on substrate and well resistances
