  • Abstract
    Submicrometer NMOSFET´s exhibit excess channel thermal noise. This excess noise increases with an increase in drain-to-source voltage and a decrease in channel length. A strong correlation between high electric field and excess noise strongly suggests hot electrons as being responsible for this excess noise.
