SweepVListMeasureI()
This KISweep factory script function performs a voltage list sweep with current measured at every step (point).
Type TSP-Link accessible
Affected by Where saved Default value
Usage
SweepVListMeasureI(smu, vlist, stime, points)
System SourceMeter
instrument channel (for example, smua refers to SMU channel
Arbitrary list of voltage source values; vlist = {value1, value2, ... valueN}
Settling time in seconds; occurs after stepping the source and before performing a
Number of sweep points (must be ≥2)
Details
Data for current measurements, voltage source values, and timestamps are stored in
smuX.nvbuffer1.
If all parameters are omitted when this function is called, this function is executed with the parameters
set to the default values.
Performs a voltage list sweep with current measured at every step (point):
1. Sets the smu to output vlist volts value, allows the source to settle for stime seconds, and then
performs a current measurement.
2. Sets the smu to output the next vlist volts value, allows the source to settle for stime seconds, and
then performs a current measurement.
3. Repeats the above sequence until the current is measured for the last volts value. The last point in the
list to be measured is points.
Example
myvlist = {-0.1, 0.1, -1, 1, -6, 6, -40,
40, 0, 0}
SweepVListMeasureI(smua, myvlist,
This function performs a 10-point voltage list sweep
starting at the first point in myvlist. Current is
measured at every step (point) in the sweep. The
source will be allowed to settle on each step for
500 ms before a measurement is performed.
