Abstract
The invention provides a reliable, simple, and accurate method for detecting a threshold thickness of a purely-resistive material deposited on a sensor, and providing a response that is independent of the resistivity of the material. The invention provides a measurement method using a sensor comprising at least two electrode pairs having a defined voltage applied thereto generating current between the electrodes, the electrode pairs differing by at least one first parameter selected from the width, the spacing, and the length of the electrodes, and the voltage applied to each pair, and at least one second one of said parameters being adjusted so that a first resistance or a first current between the electrodes of the first pair, and a second resistance or a second current between the electrodes of the second pair are equal when the threshold thickness is reached.
