Metallic coatings on non-metallic basis materials — Measurement of coating thickness — Micro-resistivity method

Summary

This document specifies a method for non-destructive measurements of the thickness of conductive
coatings on non-conductive base materials. This method is based on the principle of the sheet resistivity
measurement and is applicable to any conductive coatings and layers of metal and semiconductor
materials. In general, the probe has to be adjusted to the conductivity and the thickness of the respective
application. However, this document focuses on metallic coatings on non-conductive base materials
(e.g. copper on plastic substrates, printed circuit boards).
This method is also applicable to thickness measurements of conductive coatings on conductive base
materials, if the resistivity of the coating and the base material is significantly different. However, this
case is not considered in this document.
