“…Values of T,/f achieved with different types of cooled FETs are 17 K/0.3 GHz, 1 93 K/1.5 GHz, 2 30 K/4 GHz, 3 and 130 K/12 GHz. 4 With the inexpensive transistor used by us (Plesseys GAT 1) a typical performance figure was 80 K/0.5 GHz; similar values for the same FET have been obtained by others. 1,5 The feasibility of using cooled GaAs-FET amplifiers with SQUIDs was first demonstrated by Gaerttner.…”
