Abstract
To enhance systematics cleaness of a new advanced detection architecture for B-modes detection of the Cosmic Microwave Background polarization and in the framework of the ground based instrument QUBIC (Q and U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology), we study planar superconducting devices. Waveguide to microstrip transition, orthomode transducer and phase switches are therefore investigated as well as their cryogenic characterization at millimeter waves. We also show design and nanotechnology fabrication process of these devicesI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
