Abstract
Noise radiation corresponding to a temperature of about 108 K is observed from InSb-NiSb when it is pulsed with a high field at liquid-nitrogen temperature. A brief assessment is made of its merits and demerits as a substandard noise source for the calibration of millimetre-wavelength receivers.
