Abstract

An experiment has been devised whereby excess noise is measured along various different directions in a germanium filament after the directions of current flow for the majority and minority carriers had been altered by a magnetic field. From this experiment it is possible to determine that whereas shot noise is caused by both majority and minority carrier fluctuation, 1/f noise is essentially produced only by majority carrier fluctuation.
