The current state-of-the-art approach for superconductor–insulator–superconductor (SIS) junction fabric-ation is based on magnetron sputtering and the Gurvitch Al overlayer trilayer process, where an Al overlayer is deposited onto the Nb base ele

As the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) nears completion, 73 dual-polarization receivers have been delivered for each of Bands 3 (84-116 GHz) and 6 (211-275 GHz). The receivers use sideband-separating superconducting Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb

This paper presents a study characterizing the connection repeatability and reflection coefficient of submillimeter waveguide flanges in the 500-750 GHz band (WR-1.5 or WM-380). The connection repeatability of four types of flange was measured using

We have presented a close look at effects of order hf/kT in noise measurements and in the definition of noise quantities-noise temperature, noise figure, etc. Given the perennial push to higher frequency, lower noise, and smaller uncertainty, such ef

Measurements of microwave attenuation at room temperature and 4.2 K have been performed on some conductors commonly used in receiver input circuits. The reduction in loss on cooling is substantial, particularly for copper and plated gold, both of whi

High-energy-gap superconductors with low resistive loss and high-current-density tunnel barriers are important to increasing the operating range of THz electronics. This paper describes the development of superconducting NbTiN thin films and AlN tunn

180-degree IF hybrids are potentially useful for balanced superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) mixers. We have developed a compact Nb-based 180-degree hybrid for 4-12 GHz which addresses concerns of element size, ohmic loss, and IF bandwidth

In 1979, John Tucker showed that if the nonlinearity of a mixer diode is so sharp that its conductance changes significantly over a voltage increment hf/e, then its mixer characteristics are no longer described by classical mixer theory (e.g., as nor

We have fabricated high quality Nb/Al-oxide/Al/Nb edge junctions using a Nb/SiO/sub 2/ bi-layer film as the base electrode, suitable for use as traveling wave mixers. An edge is cut in the bi-layer with an ion gun at a 45 degree angle using a photore

Recent advances in millimeter- and submillimeter-wavelength receivers and the development of low-noise optical amplifiers focus attention on inconsistencies and ambiguities in the standard definitions of noise quantities and the procedures for measur
