Details
Data for voltage measurements, current 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 current list sweep with voltage measured at every step (point):
1. Sets the smu to output ilist amperes value, allows the source to settle for stime seconds, and then
performs a voltage measurement.
2. Sets the smu to output the next ilist step, allows the source to settle for stime seconds, and then
performs a voltage measurement.
3. Repeats the above sequence until the voltage is measured for the last amperes value. The last point in
the list to be measured is points.
Example
testilist = {-100E-9, 100E-9, -1E-6, 1E-6,
-1E-3, 1E-3}
SweepIListMeasureV(smua, testilist,
500E-3, 6)
This function performs a six-point current list
sweep starting at the first point in testilist.
Voltage 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
