Abstract
Many terahertz systems have been put forward and some of them even find ways in space. Radio astronomy is the most prospective domain where terahertz SIS detectors are employed. The fundamentals of SIS are introduced and the detection system is overviewed. Some typical systems are depicted working in space with special requirements.
