  • Abstract
    Noise spectral density was measured for GaAs metal-semiconductor-metal photodiodes. The noise spectral density is determined solely by the photocurrent shot noise at low bias voltage, but it exhibits a contribution of excess noise associated with the photocurrent gain at high bias voltage
