Study on the Correction of Error Involved in Activation Energies Calculated by the Initial Rise Method

The errors of activation energy calculated by the initial rise method from the characteristics of thermally stimulated current have been estimated and an equation for the correction of the error is proposed. The coefficients needed in the proposed equation are determined by the numerical method. It is shown that the activation energy calculated by the conventional initial rise method contains errors of 0.7-10% depending on the location of the data points of the interval on which the method is applied. However, the error can be reduced to less than 0.5% when corrected by using the proposed equation. It is finally concluded that the activation energy determined by the initial rise method can approach the true value by adapting the proposed error correction method which is effective and reliable.
