With the rise of radiation frequency the Josephson detection at the grain boundary weak links is replaced by electron heating into the grains. This change occurs in the submillimeter wavelength range. Electron-phonon relaxation time $\tau$eph is determined by direct measurements and analyses quasistationary electron heating. Temperature dependence of $\tau$eph at T <= 40 K was found to be $\tau$eph \~{} T-1. The results show that detectors with the response time of few picoseconds at nitrogen temperature are attainable.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=1685), last updated on Thu, 27 May 2021 19:39:45 -0500", issn="0038-1098", doi="10.1016/0038-1098(90)90656-V", opturl="https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/003810989090656V", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1016/0038-1098(90)90656-V" }
