Method for the determination of correct calibration pulses in PEA measurements

This work proposes an alternative method to address the correct calibration procedure of Pulsed Electro-Acoustic measurements, which minimizes the possibility of an incorrect evaluation regarding space charge accumulation at the very beginning of polarization in a material. This is done by monitoring the potential of a floating mass in the thickness of the material to be tested. Results show that the proposed method is a viable option, with much less uncertainties than more traditional methods.
