“…The detector is kept at a temperature close to the middle of the superconducting transition, where the is maximum. The edge transition superconductive bolometers have been investigated in various studies (Skchez et al, 1997;Fardmanesh, 2004;Cámara Mayorgaa et al, 2006). Photo-mixing devices needed for hot electron bolometers, which have been verified with a superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) mixer, have tremendous potential for various applications such as radio astronomy, terahertz imaging, high-resolution www.intechopen.com spectroscopy, medicine, security, and defense (Cámara Mayorgaa et al, 2006).…”
