This disclosure describes an elastic multi-contact probe that includes conductive strips each of which comprises a conductive elastomer; dielectric strips formed on a back surface of a respective conductive strip; and a layer of a thermoplastic formed on back surfaces of the dielectric strips. The disclosure also describes a method that includes measuring a first I-V curve between a pair of inner probes of the an elastic multi-contact probe based on a first current applied to a pair of outer probes; determining a first slope of a linear region of the first I-V curve; measuring a second I-V curve between the pair of inner probes based on a second current applied to the pair of inner probes; determining a second slope of a linear region of the second I-V curve; and calculating a sheet resistance and a contact resistivity of the semiconductor material based on the first and second slopes.
