8、its.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method uses a cross-bridge test structure thathas two components:One is a cross,consisting of twoperpendicularly intersecting metallization lines,which is usedto determine the sheet resistance by a van der Pauw method inwhich a forcing current,I1,through two

9、 adjacent arms to thecross,develops a voltage that is measured using the remainingtwo arms.The other component is a bridge element thatincludes the line whose width is to be determined.Two voltagetaps contact this line at a known distance from each other.Byforcing a known current,I2,through the line

10、 and measuring thevoltage difference beween the voltage taps,the mean width ofthe line can be calculated.5.Significance and Use5.1 The width of a conductor line is important to ensurepredictable timing performance of the electrical interconnectsystem,to assure control of critical device parameters,a
