Abstract
The present invention enables the quantification of line end shortening by utilizing a pattern of multiple conductive paths, each conductive path can include a conductor at each end, each conductor connected to a separate contact with the contacts connected by a polysilicon conductor. The conductors can vary in length by a constant increment from conductive path to conductive path, beginning with a length that results in a significant overlap at the contacts to a length that results in a significant underlap at the contacts. Resistance measurements of each conductive path can be made until a change either to or from an 'open' occurs; this is the point from which, using the constant increment, the LES can be characterized.
