An ultralow-temperature low-noise amplification apparatus of high
sensitivity which realizes a small size, a light weight, a low electric
power consumption and a low price. As the insertion loss caused by
high-frequency cables and a superconducting filter installed as a first
signal transmitting device before a first-stage amplifier is most
responsible for any increase in the noise figure of the
ultralow-temperature low-noise amplification apparatus as a whole, they
are formed from a material causing only a small insertion loss to reduce
the noise figure of the apparatus effectively. A high-frequency cable
forming a third signal transmitting device not affecting the noise figure
of the apparatus substantially is formed from a material of low thermal
conductivity, so that it is possible to prevent any external heat from
entering a heat-insulating container through an output connector to hold
the interior of the container steadily at a low temperature and thereby
keep the noise figure of the apparatus at a low level.
