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.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=591), last updated on Wed, 02 Jun 2021 00:07:03 -0500" }
