At frequencies above 1.3 THz the sensitivity of the NbN HEB mixers outperform the one of the Schottky diodes and SIS-mixers, and the receiver noise temperature of the NbN HEB mixers increase with frequency. In this paper we present the results of the noise temperature measurements within one batch of NbN HEB mixers based on 3.5 mn thick superconducting NbN film grown on Si substrate with MgO buffer layer at the LO frequencies 2.5 THz and 3.8 THz.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=351), last updated on Thu, 15 Jul 2021 01:41:59 -0500", doi="10.1109/MSMW.2004.1346031", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1109/MSMW.2004.1346031" }
