摘要：
A monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) frequency down-converter based on a compact high-T-c superconducting (HTS) device is demonstrated. The on-chip integrated HTS down-converter consists of a 7-9 GHz bandpass filter for RF input, a lowpass filter for intermediate frequency output, and a self-pumped Josephson heterodyne mixer. All the above passive and active components are fabricated on a single 10mm x 20mm chip of YBa2Cu3O7-x film on MgO substrate. Characterization of this MMIC HTS down- converter in terms of frequency response, conversion gain, frequency-tuneability, bias dependence, dynamic range, linearity, and intrinsic noise are presented in this paper.
