ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the characterization of an insulating layer (14), a first surface of which covers a conducting or semiconducting surface of a substrate, the second surface of the insulating layer (14) being electrically accessible, the characterization consisting of verifying the quality of electrical insulation presented by at least one area (32) of the insulating layer (14) by means of an electrical test. The invention comprises the following steps:
