Read the Resistance measurements class notes.


In a four-point probe measurement of a piece of uniformly doped silicon, the measured resistance is R = V/I = 15 Ω.

The silicon layer thickness is t = 9 μm and the probe spacing is s = 2 mm.

Find the resistivity and sheet resistance of the silicon layer.
