Low-Frequency Noise in Semiconductor Devices-State-of-the-Art and Future Perspectives Plenary Paper

Noise is both an asset and a hindrance. Noise as an asset represents a powerful non-destructive tool to study defects, track manufacturing processes and better understand aspects of charge transport in semiconductor devices. On the other hand, noise as an undesired, ever-present phenomenon, limits, for example, the sensitivity of electronic devices and the charge sensitivity of sensors and memory elements. In this plenary talk, we will present …
