  • Abstract
    The noise behaviour of p +-GaAs transmission line models (TLMs) associated with the technology of heterojunction bipolar transistors is presented. Devices of different lengths all exhibit excess noise composed of 1/f and generation-recombination noise. Noise spectra are studied as a function of different bias and different sample lengths. Contact noise is shown to be negligible. Values of the Hooge parameter alpha are extracted.<>
