Abstract:We describe theoretically the grounded method of measuring the conductivity of anisotropic layered semiconductor materials. The suggested method implies the use of a four-probe testing device with a linear arrangement of probes. The final expressions for identifying the electrical conductivity are presented in the form of a series of analytic functions. The suggested method is experimentally verified, and practical recommendations of how to apply it are also provided.
