Cryogenic isolators play an important role in low-noise receiver systems widely employed in millimeter and submillimeter telescopes. To enable a significantly wider Intermediate Frequency (IF) bandwidth, there is strong demand for a wideband, low-loss isolator in modern facilities like the Submillimeter Array (SMA) and Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). In this article, we present a novel cryogenic edge-mode isolator that incorporates an innovative circuit design. Operating at a cryogenic temperature of 4 K, this isolator delivers unprecedented performance, covering a frequency range from 4 GHz to 22 GHz. It exhibits insertion loss of less than 1 dB, together with return loss below -15 dB. In particular, it provides an isolation better than 17 dB across most of the band, a significant improvement over the previous generation of edge-mode isolators. This new isolator design is suitable for a wide array of low-noise receiver applications, from radio-astronomy to quantum computing.INDEX TERMS Calcium vanadium, ferrite devices, isolators, millimeter wave and terahertz components, quantum computing, radio astronomy, YIG.

“…The edge‐mode isolator is inherently broadband and the bandwidth can present two octaves or more [9]. However, the stripline and microstrip technology is not suitable at millimetre‐wave frequency and relative bandwidth decreases with increasing frequency mostly due to conductor loss [9]. Waveguide devices are generally preferable at high frequencies thanks to a much better loss‐related performance, and power‐handling capability.…”

“…Consequently, various versions of the edgemode isolator in microstrip and stripline have been proposed and demonstrated [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. The edge-mode isolator is inherently broadband and the bandwidth can present two octaves or more [9]. However, the stripline and microstrip technology is not suitable at millimetre-wave frequency and relative bandwidth decreases with increasing frequency mostly due to conductor loss [9].…”
