Description
The work performed in the MilliLab Frame Contract (Millimetre-Wave Measurements at MilliLab) aims to the following goals:
1. Establish and maintain state-of-the-art technical know-how in the area of millimetre wave
active and passive components and circuits as well as in the area of CAD, measuring
and calibration methods.
2. Carry out the calibration, testing, modelling and characterization related services for ESA
and for other customers. Primary service is given to ESA and customers of ESA.
3. Actively seek for customers, both in space and other fields.
4. Provide unbiased services to the customers and guarantee confidentiality on the activities performed and on the results obtained.
5. Be committed on continuing the services after the initial period of ESA support.
In order to fullfill these goals, the Work Orders of the Frame Contract have concentrated in the topics including, but not limited to:
1. Improving on-wafer measurement techniques and calibration techniques up to 325 GHz
2. Improving electrical and thermal measurement techniques for state-of-the-art European Schottky diodes which are expected to be used in the MetOp Second Generation satellite instruments
3. Improving millimeter wave and THz noise measurement techniques
