The behaviours of drain current noise of 40 nm n-MOSFETs are distinguished by comparing with 120 nm n-MOSFETs over an extended range of bias voltages and temperature. The measurement results strongly indicate that the high-frequency noise mechanism of 40 nm n-MOSFETs is changed from suppressed shot noise to thermal noise on conditions of low-voltage weak interaction.
