    Notes: Predictions of the three-port model of the quantum theory of mixing are compared with measured results on 345 GHz superconductor-insulator-superconductor waveguide mixers. Single Nb-Al2O3-Nb tunnel junctions or two or four identical junctions in series are used as mixing elements. Two different waveguide mixerblocks, one with two tuners and another with one tuner, are used. In addition a single junction with integrated tuning stub is analyzed. Embedding impedances are obtained from fits to the pumped I-V curves for all three types of mixing elements. In all cases the dependence of mixer conversion and mixer noise on bias voltage, pump power, and embedding impedance is well described by the three-port model. The measured mixer gain is lower than the calculated gain by a factor of 0.35–0.65, independent of the type of mixer. The use of an additional integrated tuning element does not change this factor. It is concluded that an excess noise power equivalent with a blackbody source of 40–65 K must be added to the mixer noise to account for the absolute value of the observed noise power.

    Notes: The frequency response of three superconductive niobium resonating circuits, formed by a Nb microstrip and a Nb tunnel junction, is measured and analyzed at frequencies above the superconducting gap frequency. The circuits are placed in a waveguide system and the frequency response is determined with a Fourier transform spectrometer. The calculated and measured resonance frequencies and bandwidths are in good agreement with the extreme anomalous limit of the Mattis–Bardeen theory on the anomalous skin effect in superconductors [D.C. Mattis and J. Bardeen, Phys. Rev. 111, 412 (1958)]. The observed loss is higher than predicted by this theory, in agreement with previous observations on Nb films. The use of other materials for striplines as tuning circuits for heterodyne superconducting tunnel junction mixers is analyzed. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The rf-power dependence of the ac-Josephson steps is measured at 720 GHz, using small area Nb tunnel junctions. This frequency is well above the gap frequency of Nb. The junction is placed in a waveguide, and connected to a superconducting stripline, which effectively tunes out the junction capacitance and facilitates the coupling of the radiation to the junction. We observe three Josephson steps, and the first step crosses the zero current axis over a considerable range of rf-power. This indicates the possible application of THz Josephson steps in voltage standards. The data are compared to the theory and we find clear evidence for the predicted intrinsic roll-off of the Josephson current amplitude above the gap frequency. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Dispersion curves of surface vibrational modes of monolayer CO2/NaCl(001) have been measured by inelastic He atom scattering along the ΓX azimuth. Eight phonon modes could be followed across almost the entire Brillouin zone. The identification of the modes is discussed based on previously calculated normal mode energies at the zone origin.

    Notes: A dynamical model of the temporal dependence of photostimulated luminescence of the storage phosphor BaFBr:Eu2+ as a result of preceeding x-ray irradiation is presented. The model is based on a monomolecular recombination mechanism. The commonly used bimolecular mechanism leads to contradictions with experimental observations. The monomolecular recombination is explained by the existence of a photostimulable luminescence complex with a recombination center and an electron trap in close proximity. Charge transfer after optical excitation occurs through tunneling. The simulation of the transient charge carrier dynamics is performed through rate equations. Good agreement wih experimentally determined temporal responses for different x-ray doses applied and stimulating light intensities is obtained.

    Notes: Low-noise heterodyne mixing at 1 THz is demonstrated in a quasioptical mixer incorporating Nb superconductor–insulator–superconductor tunnel junctions and a NbTiN/SiO2/Al tuning circuit. Receiver noise temperatures as low as 250 K at 850 GHz, 315 K at 980 GHz, and 405 K at 1015 GHz are measured—a factor of 2 improvement in sensitivity versus state-of-the-art 1 THz receivers, which incorporate normal metal tuning circuits. An analysis of the receiver sensitivity at 980 GHz demonstrates that NbTiN is low loss up to ∼1 THz. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The noise and gain of a heterodyne waveguide mixer employing Nb/Al2O3/Nb superconducting tunnel junctions with an on-chip integrated tuning element are measured and analyzed at 680–750 GHz and at 840 GHz. The lowest receiver noise temperatures are 400 K (double side band) at 720 GHz and 1500 K (3000 K including the beam splitter loss) at 840 GHz. We compare data of the pumped I–V curves with the quantum theory of mixing and demonstrate good agreement at frequencies well above the gap frequency.

    Notes: The structure and dynamics of physisorbed carbon dioxide on in situ cleaved single crystal sodium chloride surfaces was studied by means of elastic as well as inelastic helium atom scattering. At Tsurface=80–83.5 K the diffraction patterns indicate a commensurate (2×1) monolayer superstructure on the (001) plane of the substrate, the unit cell containing a glide plane. This is in agreement with results obtained from low energy electron diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. In time-of-flight experiments single phonon low-energy loss and gain features were observed which can be attributed to acoustic and optical modes. Two higher-energy features are probably due to the first combination modes observed by helium atom scattering so far. The growth of solid CO2 adsorbed on NaCl(001) was also studied. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
