ABSTRACT:
By measuring an electric characteristic of a test pad that is connected to a plurality of test vias formed in accordance with a specified process flow for forming contacts and vias of a semiconductor device, one or more process specific parameters may quantitatively be estimated. Thus, a fast and precise measurement method for contacts and vias is provided in a non-destructive manner.
