Van der Pauw method information


The van der Pauw Method is a technique commonly used to measure the resistivity and the Hall coefficient of a sample. Its power lies in its ability to accurately measure the properties of a sample of any arbitrary shape, as long as the sample is approximately two-dimensional (i.e. it is much thinner than it is wide), solid (no holes), and the electrodes are placed on its perimeter. The van der Pauw method employs a four-point probe placed around the perimeter of the sample, in contrast to the linear four point probe: this allows the van der Pauw method to provide an average resistivity of the sample, whereas a linear array provides the resistivity in the sensing direction.[1] This difference becomes important for anisotropic materials, which can be properly measured using the Montgomery Method, an extension of the van der Pauw Method (see, for instance, reference[2]).

From the measurements made, the following properties of the material can be calculated:

  • The resistivity of the material
  • The doping type (i.e. whether it is a P-type or N-type material)
  • The sheet carrier density of the majority carrier (the number of majority carriers per unit area). From this the charge density and doping level can be found
  • The mobility of the majority carrier

The method was first propounded by Leo J. van der Pauw in 1958.[3]
