Abstract :
Quantum 1/f noise is given by a simple engineering formula. It affects photodetectors through mobility and recombination speed fluctuations. The former are also in the diffusion constant, and all affect the dark current. However, there is no quantum 1/f noise in the photogeneration of carriers, as is shown
