Abstract
The design, construction and performance of 65-90 GHz and 75-110 GHz low-noise cryogenically-coolable amplifiers are presented. A comparison between modeled and measured performance is shown. A laboratory receiver exhibiting an average noise of 50 K across 65-90 GHz and 70 K across 75-110 GHz is described. These are the widest band and lowest noise HEMT receivers ever reported at these frequencies.
