Abstract
Low frequency noise spectrum and electrical conductivity of a GaAs Gunn diode are presented. Based on these results, we suggest that the observed FM noise spectrum of Gunn oscillators with −9 dB/octave slope of noise‐to‐carrier ratio may also be due to current fluctuations with l/f characteristic resulting from electron trapping.Keywords
