We calculate the low-frequency current noise for AC biased mesoscopic chaoticcavities and diffusive wires. Contrary to what happens for the admittance, thefrequency dispersion is not dominated by the electric response time (the "RC"time of the circuit), but by the time that electrons need to diffuse throughthe structure (dwell time or diffusion time). Frequency dispersion of noisestems from fluctuations of the Fermi distribution function that preserve chargeneutrality. Our predictions can be verified with present experimentaltechnology.Comment: 5 pages, 3 Figure
