Abstract: A comparative investigation of the current-voltage characteristics of the gold and silver film samples with tungsten tip proves that experimental results demonstrate the need for careful analysis of the parameters affecting the tunneling current to receive additional information about the electronic structure of the sample.

Keywords: scanning tunneling microscopy, gold, silver, mica, current-voltage characteristic, the thermal expansion of the tip
