A system and method for performing in-situ measurements of semiconductor devices during chemical vapor deposition (CVD) includes disposing a chip carrier within a sealed chamber of a reactor for carrying out in-situ monitoring of partially fabricated semiconductor devices. The chip carrier includes a plurality of metallized bonding pads disposed along both peripheral edges on a same surface of the base for making electrical connections to metallized pads or contacts on the semiconductor device through bonding wires. Each of the plurality of metallized bonding pads disposed along both peripheral edges is electrically connected to each other as a pair through electrically connecting to a corresponding pair of ports which are disposed along both peripheral edges of the chip carrier. In-situ monitoring of the partially fabricated semiconductor device is performed through connecting the plurality of ports on the chip carrier to an external source-measure unit through a connector and wire harness.
