In the paper, a comparison is described of the microwave power standard based on thermoelectric sensors against an analogous standard based on bolometric sensors. Measurements have been carried out with the classical twin-type microcalorimeter, fitted with N-connector test ports suitable for the frequency band 0.05 - 18 GHz. An appropriate measurand definition is given for being suitable to both standard types. A system accuracy assessment is performed applying the Gaussian error propagation through the mathematical models that interpret the microcalorimeter response in each case. The results highlight advantages and weaknesses of each power standard type.

The phase noise and frequency stability measurements of 1 GHz, 100 MHz, and 10 MHz signals are presented which have been synthesized from microwave cryogenic sapphire oscillators using ultra-low-vibration pulse-tube cryocooler technology. We present
the measured data using independent cryogenic oscillators for the 100 MHz and 10 MHz synthesized signals, whereas previously we only estimated the expected results based on residual phase noise measurements, when only one cryogenic oscillator was available. In addition we present the design of a 1 GHz synthesizer using a Crystek voltage controlled oscillator phase locked to 1 GHz output derived from a cryogenic sapphire oscillator.
In order to demonstrate the usefulness of the only one existing method for systematic error estimations in VNA (Vector Network Analyzer) measurements by using complex DERs (Differential Error Regions), we compare one-port VNA measurements after the t
wo well-known calibration techniques: the quick reflection response, that uses only a single S (Short circuit) standard, and the time-consuming full one-port, that uses a triple of SLO standards (Short circuit, matching Load, Open circuit). For both calibration techniques, the comparison concerns: (a) a 3D geometric representation of the difference between VNA readings and measurements, and (b) a number of presentation figures for the DERs and their polar DEIs (Differential Error Intervals) of the reflection coefficient, as well as, the DERs and their rectangular DEIs of the corresponding input impedance. In this paper, we present the application of this method to an AUT (Antenna Under Test) selected to highlight the existence of practical cases in which the time consuming calibration technique results a systematic error estimation stripe including almost all of that of quick calibration.
This paper presents a detailed investigation of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPDs) biased with microwave and direct currents. We developed a hybrid detector, which allows the operation in the rf and dc operation mode. With this
hybrid detector, we are able to compare the count rates of the same nanowire biased with dc and rf currents. Furthermore, we demonstrate the use of the oscillating current in the rf operation mode as a reference signal in a synchronous single-photon detection mode.
An experimental realization of a heat exchanger with commercial thermoelectric generators (TEGs) is presented. The power producing capabilities as a function of flow rate and temperature span are characterized for two different commercial heat transf
er fluids and for three different thermal interface materials. The device is shown to produce 2 W per TEG or 0.22 W cm$^{-2}$ at a fluid temperature difference of 175 $^circ$C and a flow rate per fluid channel of 5 L min$^{-1}$. One experimentally realized design produced 200 W in total from 100 TEGs. For the design considered here, the power production is shown to depend more critically on the fluid temperature span than on the fluid flow rate. Finally, the temperature span across the TEG is shown to be 55% to 75% of the temperature span between the hot and cold fluids.
Thermoelectric power sensors can now be used as transfer standards, instead of bolometers, in the microcalorimeter technique. This alternative has the technical advantages to be less sensitive to absolute temperature and not downward frequency limite
d. At INRiM the high frequency power standards are now based on coaxial thermocouples from dc to 34 GHz. Modified commercial thermocouple mounts in 7 mm and 3.5 mm coaxial line are used to realize the national power standard with an accuracy ranging from 0.03 % to 1 % in the mentioned frequency range.
