Abstract

A comparative analysis of the correlators of steady-state thermal and photoinduced stochastic fields (SFs) of concentrations and currents of mobile charge carriers in IR photodiodes and homogeneous semiconductors is presented. It is demonstrated that the correlators of thermal and photoinduced SFs of concentrations of mobile charge carriers are determined using conceptually identical expressions for any structure of the pn junction and arbitrary polarity of applied voltage whereas the correlators of the SFs of photoinduced and dark currents are determined using conceptually identical expressions only for the reverse-biased pn junction with a relatively wide base.
