A contactless and nondestructive technique is employed for characterizing single-sided metallised silicon wafers. The reflection spectra are measured using a quasi-optical millmeter-wave setup in the frequency range 40-320 GHz. The results are compared with those provided by the coplanar waveguide method, in terms of accuracy and range of applicability.
