Abstract

Low-frequency drain-current noise in pseudomorphic InAlAs/InGaAs/InP HEMTs has been studied at low drain bias as a function of the InGaAs pseudomorphic channel thickness. The 1/f noise at 77 K, quantified through the Kooge's empirical parameter alpha(ch), was found to be strongly dependent on the 2DEG concentration n(s) and correlated to the reciprocal mobility 1/mu. alpha(ch) was found to strongly increase at high channel thicknesses. Noise spectra analysis as a function of temperature reveals two traps with activation energies of 0.33 and 0.39 eV.

Colors of noise

In audio engineering, electronics, physics, and many other fields, the color of noise or noise spectrum refers to the power spectrum of a noise signal (a signal produced by a stochastic process). Different colors of noise have significantly different properties. For example, as audio signals they will sound differently to human ears, and as they will have a visibly different texture. Therefore, each application typically requires noise of a specific color.

Threshold voltage

The threshold voltage, commonly abbreviated as Vth or VGS(th), of a field-effect transistor (FET) is the minimum gate-to-source voltage (VGS) that is needed to create a conducting path between the source and drain terminals. It is an important scaling factor to maintain power efficiency. When referring to a junction field-effect transistor (JFET), the threshold voltage is often called pinch-off voltage instead.

Low-noise amplifier

A low-noise amplifier (LNA) is an electronic component that amplifies a very low-power signal without significantly degrading its signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Any electronic amplifier will increase the power of both the signal and the noise present at its input, but the amplifier will also introduce some additional noise. LNAs are designed to minimize that additional noise, by choosing special components, operating points, and circuit topologies. Minimizing additional noise must balance with other design goals such as power gain and impedance matching.
