CHANGES OF ELECTRONIC NOISE INDUCED BY OSCILLATING FIELDS IN BULK GaAs SEMICONDUCTORS
2008
A Monte Carlo study of hot-electron intrinsic noise in a n-type GaAs bulk driven by one or two mixed cyclostationary electric fields is presented. The noise properties are investigated by computing the spectral density of velocity fluctuations. An analysis of the noise features as a function of the amplitudes and frequencies of two applied fields is presented. Numerical results show that it is possible to reduce the intrinsic noise. The best conditions to realize this effect are discussed.

In solid state electronics the miniaturization of integrated circuits implies that, even at moderate applied voltages, the components can be exposed to very intense electric fields. Advances in electronics push the devices to operate also under cyclostationary conditions, i.e. under large-signal and time-periodic conditions. A main consequence of this fact is that circuits exhibit a strongly nonlinear behavior. Furthermore, semiconductor based devices are always imbedded into a noisy environment that could strongly affect their performance, setting the lower limit for signal detection in electronic circuits. For this reason, to fully understand the complex scenario of the nonlinear phenomen…

HOT-ELECTRON NOISE FEATURES IN SILICON CRYSTALS OPERATING UNDER PERIODIC SIGNALS
2014
We study the intrinsic noise in n-type Si crystals operating under high-frequency periodic electric fields. To simulate the dy- namics of electrons in the bulk, by taking into account the main details of band structure, scattering processes, as well as heating effects, a Monte Carlo approach is used. The noise properties are investigated by computing the velocity fluctuations correlation function, its spectral density, and the total noise power for different values of the amplitude and frequency of the driving field. We show that the noise features are significantly affected by the electric field amplitude and frequency and discuss their peculiari- ties in comparison with those exhibited in…
