Abstract
Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, systems, and/or techniques for electrically coupling components of a transistor structure together in order to perform a voltage contrast test to determine opens and shorts within the transistor structure. In embodiments, trench contacts (TCN) within a transistor structure may be electrically coupled together with an electrical connection that is electrically isolated from a power rail. In other embodiments, TCN may be electrically coupled using P-type epitaxial layers on a P-type substrate. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
