Semiconductor split-plot experiment

Description

The Semiconductor data frame has 48 rows and 5 columns.

Format

This data frame contains the following columns:

resistance
a numeric vector
ET
a factor with levels 1 to 4 representing etch time.
Wafer
a factor with levels 1 to 3
position
a factor with levels 1 to 4
Grp
an ordered factor with levels 1/1 < 1/2 < 1/3 < 2/1 < 2/2 < 2/3 < 3/1 < 3/2 < 3/3 < 4/1 < 4/2 < 4/3
