Control Voltage for C-V Measurements with 2600-RBT-200 Bias Tee (CVU-3K-KIT)

I am planning to perform high voltage (3kV) C-V measurements using the bias tees in the CVU-3K-KIT (see attached), a 2657A SMU and a 4215-CVU. The HV is applied to the DUT through a 2650-RBT-3K bias tee, while the low side is connected through a 2657A-PM-200 protection module and a 2600-RBT-200 bias tee.

I am struggling to understand the operation of the control voltage of the bias tees in the CVU-3K-KIT:
In order to perform capacitance measurements, the AC switch in the bias tee needs to be closed by applying a DC voltage of -10V on the AC input of the bias tee.
How is this DC voltage supposed to be generated? Using the integrated bias in the 4215-CVU or an external voltage source?
In the footnotes of the bias tee modes table (see picture), there is a footnote mention of an external voltage source.
However, an external voltage source would require an additional bias tee, right? So I assume the control voltage is supposed to be generated by the internal bias of the CVU?

I am familiar with the integrated 30V bias tee in the 4215-CVU, but in my thinking this bias voltage is always sourced either on the high (HPOT/HCUR) or low (LPOT/LCUR) side of the DUT, while the other side is at 0V.
In order to perform C-V measurements with these bias tees, I would need to apply -10V at both the high and low connectors.

In the K4200-KXCI reference manual, I found the following CVU command:

:CVU:DCV:OFFSET

which apparently can be used to apply a DC offset to the low terminal.
Does this mean I should use a 10V offset (:CVU:DCV:OFFSET -10) for the low terminal and set the high terminal also to -10V (:CVU:DCV -10)?
Are these DC voltages always applied, or just when doing measurements?
In order to perform an open correction, I would still need to be apply -10V to the bias tees in order to close the AC switches.

The documentation on the 2650-RBT-3K and 2600-RBT-200 bias tees is quite sparse, so I would be happy for some more information!
 

Here's a screenshot of the bias tee modes and the block diagram of the bias tee.

The CVU can source the DC bias at both CVUHI and CVULO.
To put the bias tees into CV mode, source -10 at each terminal from CVU.
The blocking cap of the bias tee will prevent this -10V from reaching DUT;  instead the bias from the SMU passes thru.

You are writing custom code to control it all?
Our ACS or ACS-Basic software has HVCV libraries for this configuration.

Thanks for the quick reply!
We plan to integrate this measurement in our Python-based DAQ for our custom-built automated probe station, so I will be writing custom code to control the C-V measurement and not use ACS (which I currently do not have access to).
I never used the simultaneous voltage sourcing on CVUHI and CVULO, but this makes sense! With the following two commands the measurement now seems to work (-10V source at both CVUHI and CVULO):

:CVU:DCV:OFFSET -10

:CVU:DCV -10

However, if I perform an open correction the DC bias seems to be lost and set to 0V. Is there any way to prevent this?
I tried the :CVU:STANDBY 0 command to leave the DC bias enabled after the test, but this did not prevent the bias from being disabled.

If this is not possible, I could imagine performing the open correction manually (measuring Z for each range/frequency/terminal) and applying it offline, but this seems quite cumbersome.


Please let me know if this discussion is too off-topic for the Components & Accessories section and if I should re-post this question in Semiconductor Parameter Analyzers.

A small update:

I downloaded the trial version of ACS and tested the open compensation there:
By looking at the command log in the K4200 KXCI, I was able to see the difference in the open correction performed by ACS with and without bias tees.

Without bias tees, the open correction is performed directly via :CVU:CABLE:COMP:OPEN.
With bias tees, the open correction is performed manually, measuring Z from both CVUHI and CVULO for all frequencies.
This manual open correction is then stored in a file and applied in ACS after the measurement.

Does this mean it is impossible to use :CVU:CABLE:COMP:OPEN directly with a DC bias?
Storing the open correction in the hardware on the 4215 CVU would be much more convenient than having to acquire and apply the open correction manually.
