摘要
The low-frequency noise is studied in different AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures under electric biases as a function of the temperature. The heterostructures differ in the two-dimensional electron-gas density and the mobility. In addition to the thermal noise, different contributions are found and characterized (1/f and generation-recombination noises). The presence of the generation-recombination noise is linked to defects in the interface between the channel and electrical contacts. Thermal activation energy values are deduced from Arrhenius plots and related to As-Ga antisite defects and DX centers. The 1/f noise is also characterized and its origin is identified as being the carrier mobility fluctuation dominated by lattice phonons. (c) 2005 American Institute of Physics.
