Development of 3-5 THz Harmonic MixerThere is a high need for 2 THz room temperaturedirect-detectorsharmonic-mixers to characterize THz opticalsources, phase lock THz-QCLs as LO sources for multi-pixelreceivers, and realize absolute frequency calibration sources forapplications in astrophysics, earth science, and remote sensing.Thus, we have developed a WM-52 (WR0.22) harmonic mixerfor the 3-5 THz operation. The design, fabrication and assemblyof the THz mixer are discussed.
