  • Abstract
    Low frequency noise measurements were made on GaAs p-i-n diodes in the temperature and frequency range of 220 to 300 K and 1 kHz to 1 MHz. Comparison of experimental data with generation-recombination-noise theory revealed the presence of a major trapping state within the I-region of these diodes. The activation energy of this trapping state is evaluated. It is concluded that the technique of trapping state identification from low-frequency noise measurements applies to GaAs p-i-n diodes
