17ps rise-time measurement by photoemission sampling
Abstract
We report on the first voltage measurements of signals with rise times below 20 ps by photoemission sampling based on the single-photon process. The high time and voltage resolution together with the potential of a submicrometre spatial resolution enables testing of very high-speed VLSI circuits by this newly developed method. © 1987, The Institution of Electrical Engineers.
