Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to simply measure the electric resistance of an oxide film with good reproducibility, by measuring an inflow current by corona discharge. CONSTITUTION:A specimen 3 comprising an aluminum plate having an oxide film 1 formed to the surface thereof is held in a state insulated from the earth and an ammeter 4 is connected between the aluminum plate 2 and the earth. A corona discharge electrode 5 is arranged in the side of the film 1 on a specimen 3 so as to provide a small interval from said film 1 and connected to a constant voltage power source 6. At first, corona discharge is performed by using the aluminum plate having no film 1 as reference in place of the specimen 3 to calculate an inflow current value. Next, the specimen 3 is set and corona discharge is performed under the same condition to measure an inflow current value. The electric resistance of the film 1 is calculated from these current values by using a specific formula. By the method, because the film 1 and the electrode 5 can be measured in a non-contact state, the measurement of resistance having reproducibility can be performed without receiving the effect of a surface state.
