Abstract

We investigated the dependence of 1/f noise on sheet resistance in poly crystalline resistors. The analysis is based on Hooge's empirical relation. The 1/f noise is given by SR/R2=Cus/WLf. Experimental results on poly-Si are compared with results on poly-SiGe, Ti-silicided poly-Si, metal Au-layers and RuO2 based thick film resistors. This review shows that the results are similar and are well described by the relation: Cus=KRsh with K=aqµ (lowest value 5×10-13 µm2/O). We explain the difference in 1/f noise between P and B doped samples and deviations from the linear dependence between Cus and sheet resistance Rsh.
