Abstract:The evolution of conceptual models of recombination noise generation in bipolar semiconductor junctions is explored with particular reference to recent developments in nonclassical light generation. This development is traced from the early work pioneered by van der Ziel through to recent work on sub-Poissonian light generation initiated by Yamamoto. This recent work has emphasised the importance of the driving impedance in suppressing recombination noise. It has helped to resolve several longstanding ambiguit… Show more
