By using conformal transformation to take account of the boundary effect, it has been confirmed that there are some areas of a square sample near the corners besides the boundary suitable to the resistance measurement of Van der Pauw's method. The theoretical criterion of the suitability is whether Van der Pauw's formula for calculation of the sheet resistance is still valid provided the voltage values in the formula for two times the measurement are substituted with those obtained by using the theory of conformal transformation. The experimental criterion is whether the experimental values of sheet resistance for probes in some areas are equal to that for them at the boundary for the same sample. The experimentally confirmed areas are larger than what the theory predicts. Our repeated experiments show that the areas out of the circle tangent to the boundary are suitable to Van der Pauw's method.
