Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) We are developing an ultra-wideband receiver for upgrading ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) receivers. In the development, Superconductor/Insulator/Superconductor (SIS) mixer with high critical current density is most important component. However it is difficult to fabricate it so that an insulator layer is very thin and likely to be with defects. In conventional structure Nb/Al/AlOx/Nb, leakage current could be increased by producing lower Nb Oxide on insulator when sputtering counter Nb layer. So Nb/Al/AlOx/Al/Nb junctions are adopted to reduce leakage current. The measured I-V characteristics showed that leakage current of the junction with an upper Al layer was small when compared to the junction without the upper Al layer. The gap voltage and leakage current degraded as the increase of thickness of the upper Al layer. Analysis about leakage current by fitting I-V characteristics are reported.
