  • Abstract
    Low-frequency 1/f or flicker noise in the frequency range of Hz to kHz has been identified and demonstrated to be described by temperature fluctuations in heat conduction in bipolar transistors operated at higher power densities. The noise power spectral density has been shown to depend upon the increase in device temperature above the ambient temperature
