Improving Calibration Accuracy for On-Wafer THz Applications

Calibrations at sub-THz frequencies call for new approaches for accurate calibrations and measurement results. Identical probe launch for calibration standards and DUT to consider technology parameters such as dielectric constant requires on-wafer calibrations. At ultra-high frequencies, probe placement accuracy on smaller structures becomes more critical.

This work demonstrates a commercial implementation of an automated TRL calibration on custom on-wafer calibration standards and the improvement on accuracy.
