Investigation of the performance of an SIS mixer with Nb-AlN-NbN tunnel junctions in the 780–950 GHz frequency band
In this paper, we present preliminary measured performance of an SIS mixer employing a Nb/AIN/NbN tunnel junction in the frequency range of 780–950 GHz range. The mixer design is an upgrade of the Carbon Heterodyne Array of the Max-Planck-Institute Plus (CHAMP+) mixer, coupled with an easy to fabric...
