Abstract

We describe a new Nb SIS junction heterodyne waveguide receiver working in the frequency range between 800–810 GHz. The receiver is light and compact and is designed to fit most infrared and optical telescopes with the minimum of reconfiguration. We present a description of the receiver and its associated RF performance.
