A modification on "An improved method to determine MOSFET channel length"

A brief review of a recent paper [1] describing a method to electrically determine the effective channel length is presented. The method uses a simplifying approximation. By defining some new terms this application can be avoided leading to a new method. Finally, data is presented comparing the two methods for MOSFET's clearly violating the approximation and exemplifying the general applicability of the new method.
