Abstract: Noise spectroscopy is an effective tool to characterize the quality of semiconductor bulk and surface and a figure of merit for device quality as a whole. In certain cases, low-frequency noise can be used for the evaluation of device reliability. Further, measurements of the noise characteristics of GaAs materials are a useful technique when it comes to studying deep defects exhibiting a thermally activated capture. In the paper we present the technique of noise spectroscopy and illustrate it with some applications. They include photocapacitive and noise measurements on a deep DX-like defect which gives rise to persistent photoconductivity in Mg-doped p-type GaN films. We also apply DLTS, photoconductivity and noise spectroscopy to characterize n-type bulk GaAs and an EL2-related metastable defect. The third example illustrates experimental results on the photoconductivity and noise of forward and reverse biased Al0.3Ga0.7N/GaN-based Schottky barriers. In the light of these results the nature and origin of the responsible centers are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
