Abstract
A method of determining the activation energies and relaxation times o f electron traps is presented. The technique is applicable to traps ac ross a broad bandwidth of switching frequencies, and can be easily aut omated. Examples are given, demonstrating precise determination of act ivation energy by scanning tunneling microscopy.
