The process generally involves the following steps:
1. Preparation: The nanomaterial or device is prepared and placed on a substrate. 2. Contacting: Electrical contacts are made using probes or electrodes. 3. Measurement: A voltage is applied, and the resulting current is measured. This is repeated over a range of voltages. 4. Data Analysis: The IV curves are analyzed to extract meaningful parameters such as threshold voltage, on/off ratio, and saturation current.
