Abstract
We present for the first time a quasi optical mixer realized as a resistive HFET mixer with an integrated slot antenna. The mixer circuit conversion loss, defined as the measured IF-power in the 50 ohm load divided by the RF-power available at the slot-antenna terminals, is approximately 7 dB at an LO-power of 10.5 dBm when the mixer is fundamentally pumped, and 16 dB for subharmonically pumping at 10 dBm LO-power.<>
