ReferenceWafer
RW10
-
Materials Development Corporation
MDC presents the RW10 Reference Wafer. A range of capacitors, resistors and semiconductor devices can bemeasured to verify the repeatability and accuracy of measurement systems. The MDC Model RW10 Reference Wafer is not actually a "wafer". It has the shape of a wafer and it includes capacitors, resistors, MOS devices, and a junction device in a wafer configuration to allow rapid verification of proper operation for capacitance-voltage and current-voltage instrumentation.

Copper Diffusion TestSystems
-
Materials Development Corporation
MDC announces the addition of software and hardware for copper diffusion studies to its CSM/Win suite of semiconductor test systems and software. This new CSM/Win feature plays an important part in the development of processes and materials for the next advance in integrated circuit technology that employscopper as a conductor. Special Current-Voltage Bias-Temperature Stress (IV-BTS) software can measure the degradation of insulator quality due to copper diffusion.Multiple test sites can be stressed with a constant voltage while the current through each site is measured and recorded. The Current-Voltage Bias-Temperature Stress test supplements conventional MOS C-V measurements and Triangular Voltage Measurements (TVS) that are also employed in copper diffusion studies.

Solar Cells/ Photovoltaic Devices
-
Materials Development Corporation
MDC offers a comprehensive array of current-voltage, capacitance-voltage, and resistivity measurements to characterize solar cells and PV devices. CSM/Win systems and software can help to fine tune your process for maximum efficiency. Critical values such as series and shunt resistances, maximum power point (both actual and theoretical), and fill factor are automatically determined.

Quasi-Static Measurements
-
Materials Development Corporation
The Quasi-static measurement ompares a high frequency capacitance-voltage plot to a C-V plot measured near zero Hertz (quasi-static). By analyzing the difference in the depletion region of the curves, the interface trap density (Dit) can be determined in the sample under test.

Junction Measurement and Analysis
-
Materials Development Corporation
A comprehensive set of analyses for junction diode or Schottky barriers begins with C-V data gathering that adjusts the voltage step to the slope of the C-V characteristics. This assures an optimum set of C-Vdata whether the voltage range is small or large. Doping profile and resistivity profile are both available at the touch of a key. Plots of 1/C2 - V or Log(C) - Log (V+ phi) show doping uniformity and doping slope factor. Exclusive recalculation options allow adjustment of stray capacitance and area to facilitate calibration using a standard reference wafer of known doping or resistivity.

Interface Trap Density Analysis Option
-
Materials Development Corporation
MDC offers interface trap density analysis using both the Conductance-Frequency and Quasi-statictechniques. The Conductance-Frequency method is recommended for fine-tuning of processes where the highest resolution is needed. The Quasi-static technique is recommended where moderate to high levels of interface traps are monitored, such as in radiation damage studies. Requires quasi-static option or variable frequency option.

Electrochemistry Tests

Materials Development Corporation
CyclicVoltammetry and Galvanostatic Charging are tests used throughout the industrial and scientific communities to study chemical reactions and behavior of electronic structures. They are extremely helpful in the monitoring of nano based dielectrics, used in super /ultra capacitors or self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The Cyclic Voltammetry test applies a ramping voltage to a device and measures the resulting current. In acapacitor-like structure the current reveals loss in the dielectric as well as degradation over time. CyclicVoltammetry is used to characterize the performance of supercapacitors and ultracapacitors formed using various nano-technologies. It is also useful in the studies of self-assembled monolayers used for sensors.
