Abstract
The thermally stimulated current (TSC) curves obtained by experiments are usually complicated. It is very important to separate such curves into single TSC curves. The autoseparation method proposed by us enables one to separate the complicated curves into individual TSC curves by using the asymptotic estimation method exactly. In these calculation processes, however, several times of calculation of the theoretical TSC curves are necessary.
In this paper, the detailed discussion to establish the autoseparation method is reported. In order to utilize the self-convergence characteristic of the autoseparation method availably, it is reported that the best interval h of Simpson's rule should be determined in two cases devided by the critical temperature, and in each case the smaller h than the best interval can give the ideal results without any errors and the adopted common h leads one to decrease the processing time largely.
The accuracy of the calculated TSC curves with this common h has been confirmed by evaluating the energy depth Et by the asymptotic estimation method, and the result has led to establishing the autoseparation method.
