Abstract
The noise performance of optoelectron coupled devices (OCDs) has been analy zed firstly from the rate equations including Langevin noise sources (C. Ha rder, J. Katz, S. Margalit, J. Shacham, A. Yariv. IEEE J Quant Electron 198 2; QE-18(3):333-7). The noise equivalent circuit of OCDs has been presented in this paper and is used to explain the noise spectrum measurement result s of OCDs. Then three noise reliability indicators used to estimate quality and reliability of OCDs are given. These indicators are general and conven ient for the direct industrial application for OCDs and other semiconductor devices. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
