Scientific paper

Recently we have shown that slow relaxations in the electron glass system can be understood in terms of the spectrum of a matrix describing the relaxation of the system close to a metastable state. The model focused on the electron glass system, but its generality was demonstrated on various other examples. Here, we study the noise spectrum in the same framework. We obtain a remarkable relation between the spectrum of relaxation rates $\lambda$ described by the distribution function $P(\lambda) \sim 1/\lambda$ and the $1/f$ noise in the fluctuating occupancies of the localized electronic sites. This noise can be observed using local capacitance measurements. We confirm our analytic results using numerics, and also show how the Onsager symmetry is fulfilled in the system.
