Hot carrier transport and noise get an increasing importance due to down scaling dimensions of microelectronic devices. A survey is given of the significant evolution and progress made during the last 40 years in this domain. A focus is made on diffusion noise : definition of the noise sources, experimental determination, microscopic modeling, noise in devices.
