  • Abstract
    The operating frequency of InP integrated circuits has pushed well into the Submillimeter wave frequency band, with amplification reported to 1 THz (1,000 GHz). This paper provides an overview of current performance and potential application of InP HEMT to Submillimeter wave radiometers for earth remote sensing.
