Fundamental Quantum 1/F Noise in Ultrasmall Semiconductor Devices and Their Optimal Design Principles

Abstract

During this period I have extended the second-quantized derivation of quantum 1/f noise shown in the Second Annual Report to the general case of N particles present in the final state. I also have derived the quantum 1/f cross correlations and the corresponding cross -correlation spectra, which are important for the calculation of quantum 1/f noise in kinetic coefficients such as the mobility and the diffusion coefficient of the current carriers in solids. In order to better explain the foundations of quantum 1/f theory, I have given a derivation of the quantum 1/f Schroedinger fields from quantum electrodynamics with the use of coherent states. Finally, I have given a direct derivation of the quantum 1/f effect in time and space. In terms of applications, a quantum 1/ f noise study of MIS detectors was performed. Experimentally, with the collaboration of the group of Prof. A van der Ziel, an excellent experimental verification of quantum 1/f theory was performed on semiconductor diodes, transistors and vacuum tubes, and a review article on the results of the experimental application and verification of my theory was published by A. van der Ziel in the Proceedings of IEEE in March 1988.
