Abstract

This work reports an analytical method for determining electrical resistivity (rho) and sheet resistance (R-S) of isotropic conductors. The method is compared with previous numerical solutions and available experimental data showing a universal behavior for isotropic conductors. An approximated solution is also reported allowing one to easily determine rho and R-S for samples either with regular or arbitrary shapes. (AU)
