Abstract :
Measurements of the noise spectra of carbon-rod resistors were made using two types of applied current, direct and sinusoidal at 10 kHz. The spectral intensities at corresponding frequencies indicate that, for some samples, the spectrum with direct current is only partially attributable to fluctuations of conductivity.
