Noise Characterization
Noise power is calculated fromthe power spectrum of the current.(using FFT)
b = 1 for most devices

MeasurementsNoise Power: Noise Amplitude:
α(T) = Hooge Constant
N = number of conduction channels SI is given by the power spectrumof the current through the device.

Resistance vs Temperature
measured in a high vacuum chamber, at a rate of 0.1 K/10 seconds

Noise Power vs Temperature - Graphene
Fit for noise power at 1 Hz.
Noise Power also does not change much with temperature

Graphene – Noise Amplitude
Lin, Avouris, Nano Lett., 2008, 8 (8), pp 2119–2125
Noise Amplitude can also be calculated using fit for noise power at 1 Hz

Reduced Graphene Oxide
• Use a strong oxidizer and rapid microwave heating to chemically exfoliate graphite
• Spin cast graphene oxide solution
• Reduce graphene oxide using hydrazine
• We’re using a large film of GO.50 mm

Noise Power vs Temperature
Sharp peaks occur at particular temperatures
Stronger temperature dependence of noise power.

Assigning Noise PeaksLocation of water freezing point vs. Temperature and Pressure
Enhanced noise happens where we expect water to freeze in the vacuum chamber

CNT Network – Noise Amplitude
CNT noise amplitude changes quite dramatically with temperature.
The literature has attributed these types of noise peaks to environmental effects for a few years, even in single tubes.

Conclusions:
• Graphene 1/f noise is weakly dependent on temperature
• Reduced graphene oxide 1/f noise shows very strong dependence on temperature and the surrounding environment
• Carbon nanotube 1/f noise is environmentally sensitive.
• Graphene seems to be coupled to it’s surroundings more weakly than carbon nanotubes.
