We have developed a set-up to perform measurements of S-parameters on devices operated at low temperature, using a Vector Network Analyzer in combination with a cryogenic chamber. High accuracy in the characterization of the devices is obtained using a set of TRL calibration standards operated at the same cryogenic temperature of the DUT. Measurements have been performed on Front-End-Modules of mm-wave receivers including cryogenic LNA developed within our collaboration.

Abstract
We have developed a set-up to perform measurements of S-parameters on devices operated at low temperature, using a Vector Network Analyzer in combination with a cryogenic chamber. High accuracy in the characterization of the devices is obtained using a set of TRL calibration standards operated at the same cryogenic temperature of the DUT. Measurements have been performed on Front-End-Modules of mm-wave receivers including cryogenic LNA developed within our collaboration.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
