I know a little about "shot noise".  That is noise caused by a current 
of discrete charges.  Like buckshot falling on a glass surface.

Then there was Prof. Schottky 
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_H._Schottky) whose name is now 
associated with Schottky diode.  According to wikipedia, he discovered 
the "Schrott effect". The word "Schrott" (= pellet) has nothing to do 
with "Schottky".

So in English, it's shot noise, and the Schottky diode!
