Semiconductor device including semiconductor evaluation element, and evaluation method using semiconductor device

摘要

Provided are a semiconductor evaluation element capable of analytically estimating the amount of DC variation of a MOS transistor which is caused by formed contacts, and an evaluation circuit and an evaluation method using the semiconductor evaluation element. The semiconductor evaluation element such as a MOS transistor includes: a gate; diffusion layers; measurement contacts; and floating contacts. The diffusion layers are formed on both sides of the gate and serve as a source and a drain. The measurement contacts are provided in positions apart from the gate on the diffusion layers. The floating contacts are provided between the gate and the measurement contacts to connect electrically isolated metal layers with the diffusion layers.
