Original Abstract
The present paper is intended to show the results of our theoretical as well as experimental studies of the phenomena that occur in consequence of micro-plasma discharges at localized points of PN junctions of reverse biased GaAs0,60P0,40 LEDs, which in turn manifest themselves as bi-stable or multi-stable noise. A practical output of this paper consists in a proposal for the methodology and experimental setup to be used for the noise diagnostics of P-N junctions, focusing on these junctions structural defects. The method is based on the experimental analysis of the narrow-band noise current r.m.s. value versus reverse current measured for bi-stable current conduction in micro-plasma regions. Each local peak of this curve corresponds to a single microplasma active region. The noise current r.m.s. value is decreasing growing temperature, which is in a good agreement with the microplasma related bi-stable current conduction.
