Abstract: A measuring system measures an overall resistance of two or more films on a substrate/measurement object by a terahertz absorption measurement and an overall film thickness by a photoacoustic measurement. The system estimates a first film thickness based on the overall resistance, then subtracts this estimated thickness from the overall film thickness measured by the photoacoustic measurement. The system includes a source unit to output a laser beam. A first pump-probe unit receives the laser beam and performs a photoacoustic test on the measurement object. A second pump-probe unit receives the laser beam and performs a terahertz signal test on the measurement object. The system also includes a stage to support the measurement object and controls for controlling elements and calculating the film thicknesses
