Abstract

A test pattern for measuring semiconductor alloys using X-ray diffraction (XRD) includes a first region to an Nth region defined on a wafer, and a plurality of test structures positioned in the first region and so forth up to in the Nth region. The test structures in the same region have sizes identical to each other and the test structures in different regions have sizes different from each other.
