Scientific paper

A technique for calibrating noise sources in the far infrared and millimeter wavelength range is described. Results obtained with a commercial neon gas discharge microwave noise tube in the range 60 less than F less than 900 GHz and at a minimum resolution of 5 GHz are presented. Also, a comparison is given of the power received from this tube in a typical millimeter/submillimeter wave spectroscopic system to that received with a conventional mercury arc lamp in the same arrangement. The results show that up to eight times more power per unit frequency interval was received with the noise tube over its rated operating range (90 to 140 GHz), indicating that these tubes are useful for broadband spectroscopy at millimeter wavelengths.
