چکیده

We report measurements of current noise in single-layer and multilayer graphene devices. In four single-layer devices, including a p-n junction, the Fano factor remains constant to within +/-10% upon varying carrier type and density, and averages between 0.35 and 0.38. The Fano factor in a multilayer device is found to decrease from a maximal value of 0.33 at the charge-neutrality point to 0.25 at high carrier density. These results are compared to theories for shot noise in ballistic and disordered graphene.

Evanescent wave transport and shot noise in graphene: ballistic regime and effect of disorder

We have investigated electrical transport and shot noise in graphene field effect devices. In large width over length ratio W/L graphene strips, we have measured shot noise at low frequency (f = 600–850 MHz) in the temperature range of 4.2–30 K. We observe a minimum conductivity of 4e 2 πh and a finite and gate dependent Fano factor reaching the universal value of 1/3 at the Dirac point, i.e. w...

Shot noise in a harmonically driven ballistic graphene transistor

We study time-dependent electron transport and quantum noise in a ballistic graphene field effect transistor driven by an ac gate potential. The nonlinear response to the ac signal is computed through Floquet theory for scattering states and Landauer-Büttiker theory for charge current and its fluctuations. Photon-assisted excitation of a quasibound state in the top-gate barrier leads to resonan...

Sub-Poissonian shot noise in graphene.

We calculate the mode-dependent transmission probability of massless Dirac fermions through an ideal strip of graphene (length L, width W, no impurities or defects) to obtain the conductance and shot noise as a function of Fermi energy. We find that the minimum conductivity of order e2/h at the Dirac point (when the electron and hole excitations are degenerate) is associated with a maximum of t...

Shot noise in ballistic graphene.

We have investigated shot noise in graphene field effect devices in the temperature range of 4.2-30 K at low frequency (f=600-850 MHz). We find that for our graphene samples with a large width over length ratio W/L, the Fano factor F reaches a maximum F ~ 1/3 at the Dirac point and that it decreases strongly with increasing charge density. For smaller W/L, the Fano factor at Dirac point is sign...
