(author) We report the sensitivity of a superconducting NbN hot electron bolometer mixer integrated with a tight spiral antenna at 5.3 THz. Using a measurement setup with black body calibration sources and a beam splitter in vacuo, and an antireflection coated Si lens, we obtained a double sideband receiver noise temperature of 1150 K, which is 4.5 times...
