Details
Data for pulsed voltage measurements, current levels, and timestamps are stored in smuX.nvbuffer1.
If any parameters are omitted or nil, the operator will be prompted to enter them using the front panel.
Performs a specified number of pulse I, measure V cycles:
1. Sets the smu to output bias amperes and dwell for toff seconds.
2. Sets the smu to output level amperes and dwell for ton seconds.
3. Performs voltage measurement with source at level amperes.
4. Sets the smu to output bias amperes for toff seconds.
5. Repeats steps 2 through 4 for all remaining points pulse-measure cycles.
