Abstract

Granular composites consisting of 25% nickel as 8 nm diameter particles dispersed in an aluminium oxide matrix display excess conduction noise. Co-deposited films with resistance per square about 10⁵ ohms and negative temperature coefficient show a noise power spectral density S_v(f{hook}) = S_v(1) f{hook}^α where α ≅ 1.10 ± 0.03 over the accessible spectral range of 0.1 Hz ≲ f{hook} ≲ 5000 Hz. The amplitude 3 × 10^-15 ≲ S_v(1) ≲ 5 × 10^-12 V²Hz^-1, appears to increase approximately quadratically as the applied voltage V_s up to V_s ≲ 2.5 V and as the first power of V_s for 2.5 ≲ V_s < 35 V.
