Scientific paper

This review presents a theoretical framework for understanding SIS submillimeter detection using an optical photodiode theory. Both gain and noise in the SIS mixer are described in the terms of mixing on a photodiode. The role of impedance matching in the proper design of an SIS mixer is described. A variety of methods for achieving good impedance match as submillimeter frequencies are presented. The state of the submillimeter SIS mixer art as practiced in a variety of laboratories is described and summarized.
