Abstract :
An investigation is presented into the low frequency noise in GaAs heterodimensional junction field effect transistors (HD JFETs) at room and elevated temperatures. The Hooge parameter at zero gate bias was calculated to be 2×10-3 for the devices. The temperature dependence of the noise was used to determine the trap level with an activation energy of 0.7 eV
