Abstract
A technique comprising: producing a plurality of devices according to a common production process; and determining the thickness of a layer of one of said plurality of devices using an indicator of a first electrical property dependent on the area of overlap between a first element of the device and a second element of the device partially underlying said first element via said layer, wherein the method further comprises: additionally using an indicator of a second electrical property dependent on the area of overlap between said first element of the device and a third element of the device also partially underlying said first element via said layer, wherein (a) the difference between (i) a measured indicator of said first electrical property, and (ii) a measured indicator of said second electrical property provides a more reliable indicator of the thickness of said layer than (b) an indicator of said first electrical property.
