Josephson pair tunnelling influence on the performance of an SIS mixer near its superconducting gap
We report the investigation of the influence of Josephson pair tunnelling on the sensitivity of an SIS mixer near the superconducting gap of niobium. Hot and cold load measurements were carried out from 600 GHz to 700 GHz, without completely supressing the Josephson effect. We have noticed that when...
