Title NbN HEB mixer: fabrication, noise temperature reduction and characterization Type Conference Article
Year 2008 Publication Proc. Basic problems of superconductivity Abbreviated Journal (down)
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords HEB, mixer, noise temperature, conversion gain bandwidth
Abstract We demonstrate that in the terahertz region superconducting hot-electron mixers offer the lowest noise temperature, opening the possibility of using HTS's in the future to fabricate these devices. Specifically, a noise temperature of 950 K was measured for the receiver operating at 2.5 THz with a NbN HEB mixer, and a gain bandwidth of 6 GHz was measured at 300 GHz near Tc for the same mixer.

Title Performance of the HIFI flight mixers Type Conference Article
Year 2008 Publication Proc. 19th Int. Symp. Space Terahertz Technol. Abbreviated Journal (down)
Volume Issue Pages 98-105
Keywords HEB mixer applications, HEB applications
Abstract We summarize the technology and final results of the superconducting heterodyne SIS and HEB mixers that are developed for the HIFI instrument. Within HIFI 7 frequency bands cover the frequency range from 480 GHz to 1910 GHz. We describe the different device technologies and optical coupling schemes that are used to cover the frequency bands. The efforts of the different mixer teams that participate in HIFI have contributed to an instrument that will have unprecedented sensitivity and frequency coverage.

Title Novel rectangular spiral antennas Type Manuscript
Year 2008 Publication Abbreviated Journal (down)
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords optical antennas
Abstract Round spiral antennas are generally designed by using Archimedean spiral geometries which have linear growth rates. To obtain smaller antennas with nearly the same performance, square spiral Archimedean geometries are also widely used instead. In this study, novel square antennas are proposed, designed and examined. At first two similar but different approaches are employed to design new antennas by considering the design procedure used to obtain log-periodic antennas. Then, the performance of these antennas is improved by considering another property of log-periodic antennas. Simulations are performed by using two different numerical methods which are Finite Difference Time Domain Method (FDTD) and Method of Moments (MoM). The results obtained from the simulations are compared with those of the Archimedean spiral antennas in terms of the frequency dependency of fundamental antenna parameters such as antenna gain and radiation pattern. The simulation results are compared with the ones obtained from the experimental study.

Title Chiral-fiber gratings sense the environment Type Conference Article
Year 2008 Publication Laser Focus World Abbreviated Journal (down)
Volume 44 Issue 6 Pages 76-79
Keywords chiral fiber gratings, chiral gratings, from chiralphotonics
Abstract The article focuses on the use of chiral fiber gratings in sensing. It discusses the production of chiral optical fibers which are created through twisting fibers. It cites experiments concerning the function of chiral-fiber grating produced by twisting optical fibers. The process and results of the experiments are also discussed in the article.
