| Abstract |
This paper describes a new 200–350-GHz dual polarization heterodyne radiometer receiver for radio astronomy applications. The receiver incorporates four pairs of cryogenically cooled Schottky-barrier diode single-ended mixers, each pair covering a 30–40-GHz subband of the full operating band. Each mixer, with its IF amplifier, is mounted in an individual cryogenic subdewar comprising a separate vcuum chamber and a cold stage, which may be readily thermally connected to or disconnected from the main refrigerator by a novel mechanical heat switch. A dual polarization LO diplexer is mounted on a rotary table above the subdewars. For band selection, the two diplexer rf output ports may be positioned over any of the four pairs of subdewars. The SSB receiver noise temperatues achieved are less than 500 K between 200 and 240 GHz, less than 800 K between 245 and 275 GHz and 1500 K at 345 GHz. |

| Abstract |
In this paper we report on the fabrication of a planar Schottky diode utilizing a Г-shaped anode suspended bridge. The bridge maintains transition between the top and bottom level planes of a 1.4 µm thick GaAs mesa. To implement the profile of a suspended bridge and inward tilt of a mesa wall adjacent to it, we make use of an anisotropic etching of gallium arsenide. The geometry proposed enables the fabrication of a diode with mesa of an arbitrary thickness to mitigate AC losses in the diode layered structure at terahertz frequencies of interest. For frequencies beyond 1 THz, it is also beneficial to use the geometry for the implementation of n-GaAs/n-InGaAs heterojunction Schottky diodes grown on InP substrate. |

| Abstract |
An adequate water balance (hydration extent) is one of the basic factors of normal eye function, including its external shells: the cornea and the sclera. Adequate control of corneal and scleral hydration is very important for early diagnosis of a variety of eye diseases, stating indications for and contraindications against keratorefractive surgeries and the choice of contact lens correction solutions. THz systems of creating images in reflected beams are likely to become ideal instruments of noninvasive control of corneal and scleral hydration degrees. This paper reports on the results of a study involving transmittance and reflectance spectra for the cornea and the sclera of rabbit and human eyes, as well as those of the rabbit eye, in the frequency range of 0.13 to 0.32 THz. The dependence of the reflectance coefficient of these tissues on water mass percentage content was determined. The experiments were performed on three corneas, three rabbit scleras, two rabbit eyes, and three human scleras. The preliminary results demonstrate that the proposed technique, based on the use of a continuous THz radiation, may be utilized to create a device for noninvasive control of corneal and scleral hydration, which has clear potential of broad practical application. |
