Synopsis

Excerpt from Methods of Measurement for Semiconductor Materials, Process Control, and Devices: Quarterly Report, October 1 to December 31, 1972

This quarterly progress report, eighteenth of a series, describes nbs activities directed toward the development of methods of measure ment for semiconductor materials, pfocess control, and devices. Sig nificant accomplishments during this reporting period include (1) com pletion of the investigation of the effects of current, probe force, and surface condition on the measurement of resistivity of bulk silicon wafers by the four - probe method, (2) establishment of Operating condi tions appropriate for determining the sensitivity of transient thermal response measutements to voids in transistor die attachment, and (3) initiatioh of ah interlaboratory comparison of transistor scattering parameter measurements. Because of the general applicability of the first of these, details are presented in a separate appendix. Work is continuing on measurement of resistivity of semiconductor crystals; characterization of generation - recombination - trapping centers in sili con; study of gold - doped silicon; development of the infrared response technique; evaluation of wire bonds and die attachment; measurement of thermal properties of semiconductor devices; determination of 8 parameters, delay time, and related carrier transport properties in junction devices; development of a-c probing techniques; and character ization of noise and conversion loss of microwave detector diodes. Supplementary data concerning staff, standards committee activities, technical services, and publications are included as appendices.
