Sub-poissonian Shot Noise in a Diffusive Conductor
— A review is given of the shot-noise properties of metallic, diffusive conductors. The shot noise is one third of the Poisson noise, due to the bimodal distribution of transmission eigenvalues. The same result can be obtained from a semiclassical calculation. Starting from Oseledec’s theorem it is shown that the bimodal distribution is required by Ohm’s law.
متن کاملFrequency Dependence of Shot Noise in a Diffusive Mesoscopic Conductor
Detailed measurements of the voltage, temperature, and frequency dependence of the nonequilibrium current fluctuations for a diffusive mesoscopic conductor are reported. The data confirm predictions that a mesoscopic conductor shorter than the electron-electron inelastic length will display shot noise. Furthermore, the low temperatures (100 mK) and high frequencies (1–20 GHz) used for the measu...
متن کاملKinetic theory of shot noise in nondegenerate diffusive conductors
We investigate current fluctuations in nondegenerate semiconductors, on length scales intermediate between the elastic and inelastic mean free paths. We present an exact solution of the nonlinear kinetic equations in the regime of space-charge limited conduction, without resorting to the drift approximation of previous work. By including the effects of a finite voltage and carrier density in th...
متن کاملShot-noise anomalies in nondegenerate elastic diffusive conductors
We present a theoretical investigation of shot-noise properties in nondegenerate elastic diffusive conductors. Both Monte Carlo simulations and analytical approaches are used. Two interesting phenomena are found: ~i! the display of enhanced shot noise for given energy dependences of the scattering time, and ~ii! the recovery of full shot noise for asymptotic high applied bias. The first phenome...
متن کاملInelastic Scattering and Shot Noise in Diffusive Mesoscopic Conductors
A short summary of the drift-diffusion-Langevin formalism for calculating finite-frequency shot noise in diffusive conductors is presented. Two new results are included in this presentation. First, we arrive at a simple (but accurate) phenomenological expression for the semiclassical distribution function of electrons in the presence of electron-electron scattering. Second, it is shown that in ...
