The specific implementation method corresponding to the invention comprises the following steps:
1. building MIT model
The MIT model is a model of high electron mobility transistors built based on the virtual source concept, which uses charge density as a modeling core. To accurately model the MIT model, we need to first measure some basic physical parameters of the strip-modeled device, such as the gate width of the deviceLength of gridIndex ofMobility of carrierCarrier transfer speedUnit area capacitance between strong reverse time grid and channel of deviceAnd the like. Next, we need to measure the DC IV data of the device, and fit the DC IV data using the drain expression of the MIT model to get the MIT model suitable for the device.

Therefore, the direct current IV of the measured device can be fitted based on the expression, the MIT model corresponding to the direct current IV is established, and the direct current IV required by the subsequent flicker noise modeling is obtainedThe specific expression of (1).
2. Introduction and derivation of flicker noise
Here we get a flicker noise model based on the MIT model through a series of simplifications, substitutions and approximations starting from the most basic flicker noise model.
First, the power spectral density corresponding to the mean square fluctuation of the number of occupied traps in a unit area is given
WhereinIn order for the trap density to be measurable,is aA physical quantity that adjusts the frequency dependence of the power spectral density,representing the probability of electron tunneling to a trap, a common value for the devices discussed in this invention is 1e10 m-1。
Based on this, assume again that a HEMT device has a lengthWidth ofIndex of gridThen its power spectral density of flicker noise can be expressed as
A modified current ripple expression is introduced here. The expression considers the ratio of the current change as the charge density at a certain point of the channelChange rate of (2) and low field mobilityAdding or subtracting rates of change of
Where a plus sign corresponds to a situation where the trap is electrically neutral when filled and a minus sign corresponds to a situation where the trap is electrically charged when filled. Followed by introducing a trap density in the above formulaThe above formula can be derived to

WhereinRepresenting the potential energy of the gate electrode,representing the position of a certain point of the channel,which represents the source of the light emitting diode,representing the drain. Thus, the relationship of position to charge density can be expressed as
By bringing (8) into (5) and integrating along the channel length, the current spectral density and charge density are related by
WhereinIs the charge density of the drain electrode and,is the charge density of the source. Based on previous work, if the device is operated in a strong inversion region, the ratio of the fluctuation of the number of carriers to the fluctuation of the number of occupied traps will be a constant value, and therefore, the ratio of the fluctuation of the number of occupied traps will be a constant valueQuadratic equation as argumentCan be used to replace that in (9)WhereinFor the adjustable fitting parameters, as shown below
Integrating (10) to obtain the flicker noise power spectral density based on the charge and suitable for the MIT model
In the above-mentioned formula, the compound of formula,is the frequencyAs a function of (a) or (b),are all gate source voltageAnd drain-source voltageThe expression of which may be given by a previously established MIT model. Thus, the power spectral density of the device can be determined by adjusting the fitting parameters in the model (11), such asEtc. to accurately fit. If the power spectral density of the equivalent voltage flicker noise is desired, divide (11) by transconductanceWherein the transconductance can be obtained by observing the amount of change in current after applying a slight voltage increment to the obtained MIT model
Thus, (11) or (12) is a flicker noise model based on the MIT model.

If the noise power spectral density of the equivalent voltage source is desired to be obtained, a smaller voltage increment can be applied to the modeled MIT model, and the ratio of the current variation and the voltage increment caused by the smaller voltage increment is calculated to obtain the transconductanceDividing (11) by the transconductanceThe square of (1) is just required.
