Abstract :
At PTB a microcalorimeter has been installed for calibrating RF power mounts with 3.5 mm precision 50 /spl Omega/ coaxial connectors (PC-3.5) to be used as power standards up to 26.5 GHz. Two detachable inserts with 3.5 mm coaxial transmission lines for a twin-type microcalorimeter have been developed. Measurements of bolometer mounts fitted with PC-3.5 adaptors and of a PC-3.5 power sensor are described.
