Abstract :
A microstrip resonator driven by a resistively shunted Josephson junction has been used for submillimeter-wave surface resistance measurements to about 400 GHz. A simple, analytical analysis of the resonator-induced structure in the junction´s I-V characteristic gives the resonator surface resistance in the range of 2-160 m Omega with an accuracy of better than 30%.<>
