<div>We derive an analytical model for 1/f noise in MOSFETs, highlighting a term that is often neglected in literature but becomes important for ultra-thin oxides. Furthermore, we identify an interesting relationship between the thermal noise of the gate impedance and the gate noise due to trapping/detrapping between the free carriers in the channel and the oxide traps, as well as the 1/f noise cross-correlation between drain and gate, showing that a single voltage noise generator is not enough to describe completely the 1/f noise. TCAD simulations are used to verify the model predictive capabilities.</div>

This article describes some teaching laboratory investigations of thermal noise. It is shown that under certain conditions the thermal noise current from a resistor may be measured with considerable accuracy, allowing meaningful comparison with theoretical prediction. Brief discussion of relevant theory is included. A novel shot noise generator, used for calibration, is described.

Synchrotron radiation is 100 to 1000 times brighter than a thermal source such as a globar. It is not accompanied with thermal noise and it is highly directional and nondivergent. For these reasons, it is well suited for ultra-spatially resolved FT-IR microspectroscopy. In efforts to attain good spatial resolution in FT-IR microspectroscopy with a thermal source, a considerable fraction of the infrared beam focused onto the specimen is lost when projected remote apertures are used to achieve a small spot size. This is the case because of divergence in the beam from that source. Also the brightness is limited and it is necessary to compromise on the signal-to-noise or to expect a long acquisition time from coadding many scans. A synchrotron powered FT-IR Microspectrometer does not suffer from this effect. Since most of the unaperatured beam’s energy makes it through even a 12 × 12 μm aperture, that is a starting place for aperture dimension reduction.

Our objective is to generalize the Weaver-Astumian (WA) and Kaune (KA) models of thermal noise limit to the case ofcellular membrane resistivity asymmetry. The asymmetry of resistivity causes different effects in the two models. In the KAmodel, asymmetry decreases the characteristic field strength of the thermal limit over and increases it below the breakingfrequency (10  m), while asymmetry decreases the spectral field strength of the thermal noise limit at all frequencies.We show that asymmetry does not change the character of the models, showing the absence of thermal noise limit at highand low frequencies in WA and KA models, respectively.
