Shot Noise

Shot Noise is a type of electronic noise arising from the discrete nature of electric charge, characterized by random fluctuations in current due to the statistically independent arrival of charge carriers across a potential barrier, distinguishing it from thermal and flick noise mechanisms in electronic devices.
