Abstract :
The results of development and investigations of ultra-low-noise waveguide and quasioptical receivers of millimeter wave band region based on SIS mixers are presented. The possible cryogenic components of millimeter wave band receivers based on SIS junctions such as dc SQUID IF amplifiers, SIS noise sources, cooled ferrite phase-shifters-modulators, superconducting mm-wave local oscillators, superconducting analog-to-digital converters were designed, produced and experimentally studied. The prospects of creation the entirely superconducting integrated receiving circuits containing all mentioned above superconducting components are discussed.
