Beside the white noise, which is well understood, the spectral densities S_phi(f) and S_alpha(f) show flicker noise, proportional to 1/f.\n  We report on the measurement of the phase and amplitude noise of high-speed p-i-n photodiodes. The main result is that the flicker coefficient of the samples is approximately 1E-12 rad^2/Hz (-120dB) for phase noise, and approximately 1E-12 Hz^-1 (-120dB) for amplitude noise.
