Those who participate in this seminar will learn and understand:

• Measurement techniques required for measuring very small currents
• Sources of measurement error that will affect such low current measurements
• Measurement solutions that can be used in low current measurement applications

These measurement best practices are important for applications in semiconductor material/device characterization, nanoscience test and measurement, optoelectronic device characterization, and many more. Applications examples where such sensitive measurements are required will be discussed, together with a discussion of recent innovative test equipment solutions.

“How to Get the Most from Your Low Current Measurement Instruments” is recommended for researchers, engineers, and scientists in areas such as materials science, chemistry, nanoscience, and semiconductor device development who wish to get a better understanding of low current electrical measurements.

Presenter Jonathan Tucker is the senior marketer for Keithley’s research and education business and sensitive measurements product line manager. He joined Keithley in 1987 and has held numerous positions. Tucker holds a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering degree from Cleveland State University and an MBA from Kent State University.

“How to Get the Most from Your Low Current Measurement Instruments" will be broadcast on Thursday, November 19, 2009, at 3:00 p.m. Central European Time (CET) (9:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST)) for the European audience and at 2:00 p.m. EST (8:00 p.m. CET) for the North American audience. The event is free to the public, but advance registration is required at www.keithley.com/events/semconfs/webseminars.
