Abstract :
An analytically tractable model is presented for the calculation of noise performance of a modulation-doped field-effect transistor (MODFET). The charge control is based on the self-consistent solution of Schrodinger and Poisson´s equation. An improved velocity-field characteristic is used in the calculation. The fit provided by the developed theory to the experimental data is excellent
