Abstract
The classical impedance field method is one of the most powerful techniques to calculate electronic noise in semiconductor structures. This method fails when applied to deep submicron devices due to the presence of spatial correlations between noise sources. To overcome this drawback, a new technique (generalised impedance field) has been developed in the frame of a hydrodynamic simulator. Analogously to the classical method, the calculation of electronic noise requires the knowledge of two quantities: the local noise sources and the generalised impedance fields. Instead of using a hydrodynamic approach to obtain the generalised impedance fields and a Monte Carlo simulation for the noise sources, we have used a microscopic simulator (the Scattered Packet Method) to compute both quantities.
