Abstract
In this paper, we report on the successful fabrication and characterisation of the Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta intrinsic Junctions. To study the microwave inf luence of these intrinsic junctions, harmonic mixing was carried out in the millimeter waveband at temperatures ranging from 20K to 77K Up to 68(th) h armonic mixing in the 8 millimeter waveband and 56(th) in the 3 millimeter waveband were clearly observed. The dependence of the intermediate frequenc y output on the temperature, the signal power and the local oscillator powe r were studied, and some unexpected features were observed.
