Ww. Xu et al., Harmonic frequency mixing using high T-c superconductor Josephson junctionmounted on pulse tube cryocooler, CHIN SCI B, 46(18), 2001, pp. 1555-1556
A frequency mixing system including microwave coupling and intermediate fre
quency (IF) measurement arrangements is designed. In lieu of liquid nitroge
n, a pulse tube cryocooler is used to cool the whole system. With YBa2Cu3O7
/Yttrium stabilized zirconia (YBCO/YSZ) bicrystal Josephson junction as the
mixing element, 36th harmonic frequency mixing at the 8 mm waveband is obt
ained.
