1/f noise sources
Abstract
This survey deals with 1/f noise in homogeneous semiconductor samples. A distinction is made between mobility noise and number noise. It is shown that there always is mobility noise with an /spl alpha/ value with a magnitude in the order of 10/sup -4/. Damaging the crystal has a strong influence on /spl alpha/, /spl alpha/ may increase by orders of magnitude. Some theoretical models are briefly discussed none of them can explain all experimental results. The /spl alpha/ values of several semiconductors are given. These values can be used in calculations of 1/f noise in devices.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
