Abstract
Substantial shot-noise suppression has been observed in a series of asymmetric double-barrier resonant-tunneling diodes. The suppression is only seeen in the voltage range where the peak resonant-tunneling transmission coefficient is near unity and where there is a large charge buildup in the quantum well; in other voltage ranges, full shot noise is observed.Keywords
