Terahertz current noise in n+nn+ diodes

We present an analytical model for the calculation of the spectral density of current fluctuations in n + nn + diodes at high frequency. The model takes into account the synchronous motion of the free carriers in each region of the structure, the so-called "returning" carriers and the plas...

Zusammenfassung:We present an analytical model for the calculation of the spectral density of current fluctuations in n + nn + diodes at high frequency. The model takes into account the synchronous motion of the free carriers in each region of the structure, the so-called "returning" carriers and the plasma resonances at the n + n homojunctions. The current noise spectrum exhibits resonances in the terahertz domain which are discussed and analyzed for different total lengths of the diode and different materials.
