  • Abstract
    This talk is to briefly illustrate the correlation between the advance in millimeter-wave technology and the recent rapid progress in modern cosmology. An on-going instrumentation project, the array for microwave background anisotropy (AMiBA) is used as a working example to address the connection between the technology and its scientific exploration.
