Abstract

See full text

Corona charge is applied to a semiconductor product wafer to reverse bias PN junctions. Measurements of voltage decay in the dark and in the light are made and combined to determine a PN junction leakage characteristic. A portion of the dark measurement is taken in the light to permit normalizing the light and dark measurements.
