By means of the Laplace transform method sufficient conditions for the existence of exponentially decaying memory kernels in heat flow and viscoelasticity are derived solving corresponding inverse problems. The observation functionals of the inverse problems are built up by n eigenfunctions of the related elliptic equation or the data of the direct problems possess n non-vanishing Fourier coefficients, only. In the special cases n = 1 and n = 2 the Laplace transforms of the memory kernel are given in explicit form.
