Title Reflectivity of antenna reflectors: measurements at frequencies between 110 and 200 GHz Type Conference Article
Year 2003 Publication Proc. Antennas and propagation society international symposium Abbreviated Journal
Volume 3 Issue Pages 528-531
Keywords mirror, reflection index, emissivity, reflectivity, mirror, Fabry-Perot interferometer, subterahertz, subTHz
Abstract It is imperative to test the mechanical, electrical and thermal-optical properties of MM and sub-MM reflector antennas. Electrical, thermal and optical properties are very important and high-accurate measurements lead, obviously, to more accurate results in applications. This paper deals with measurement of electrical reflectivity in the range 110-200 GHz. Reflectivity has been measured for a number of samples, which represent materials used in reflector antennas. Both metal samples and carbon-fibre samples were tested in a dedicated facility available for this purpose at the Applied Physics Institute in Nizhny Novgorod (IAP). The test facility is shortly discussed, with techniques for data extraction. Calibration is done with high quality silver coated mirrors and aluminium control samples. Accurate results have been derived with indicative interesting results.

Title Low noise NbN hot electron bolometer mixer at 4.3 THz Type Journal Article
Year 2007 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.

Keywords NbN HEB mixers, NbN, contacts cleaning
Abstract We have studied the sensitivity of a superconducting NbN hot electron bolometer mixer integrated with a spiral antenna at 4.3 THz. Using hot/cold blackbody loads and a beam splitter all in vacuum, we measured a double sideband receiver noise temperature of 1300 K at the optimum local oscillator (LO) power of 330 nW, which is about 12 times the quantum noise (hnu/2kB). Our result indicates that there is no sign of degradation of the mixing process at the superterahertz frequencies. Moreover, a measurement method is introduced which allows us for an accurate determination of the sensitivity despite LO power fluctuations.

Title Far-ir heterodyne radiometric measurements with quasioptical Schottky diode mixers Type Journal Article
Year 1978 Publication Appl. Phys. Lett. Abbreviated Journal Appl. Phys. Lett.
Volume 33 Issue 2 Pages 151-154
Keywords Schottky
Abstract Frequency countings close to a phase locked zone in an electronic receiver show a 1/f power spectral density. The noise scaling versus the frequency deviation and the open loop gain are found from Adler's model of the phase locked loop. This fully agrees with experiments performed at 5 MHz on a receiver with a Schottky diode mixer and a low pass filter. The 1/f amplitude and frequency noise due to the whole set of (sub)harmonics is explained from a nonlinear mapping, with a coupling coefficient related to the structure of prime numbers.
