This study aimed to improve the measurement accuracy of time-resolved scanning tunneling spectroscopy (OPVP-STS). To identify the source of distortion in measurement results, the sample was changed from a semiconductor to a metal (gold). The investigation revealed that minute contamination of the synchronization signal into the bias voltage (~0.1 mV) causes DC bias fluctuations, introducing errors in the measured values. Although complete elimination of this contamination was not achieved, three guidelines for high-accuracy measurement were established: correction using theoretically calculated values, unification of experimental conditions, and cancellation of signal offset.
