Random telegraph signals in semiconductor devices /

Following their first observation in 1984, random telegraph signals (RTSs) were initially a purely scientific tool to study fundamental aspects of defects in semiconductor devices. As semiconductor devices move to the nanoscale however, RTSs have become an issue of major concern to the semiconductor...
