Abstract

PURPOSE:To avoid wasting wafers for testing by a method wherein a test pattern is formed on a test site of a master slice wafer and after measurement, this wafer is peeled off to be a finished product. CONSTITUTION:A contact hole 3 is opened in a test site 5 on a master slice wafer substrate 1 whereon an insulating film 2 is formed. Firstly a metallic layer 4 is evaporated on overall surface on the film 2. Secondly a test pattern is formed only on the test site 5. The electric characteristics of the test pattern so far formed are measured to test the characteristics of this wafer. After the testing process, the layer 4 is peeled off. The substrate 1 is shifted to the production process of parts 6 since a pattern of any optional produce may be formed by means of opening a contact hole on any part excluding the test site 5 for electric wiring. Through these procedures, the master slice wafer after testing process may be produced without wasting any wafers for testing process.
