Ice desorption is the main mechanism causing the release of complex molecules from solid to gas phase in star forming regions.A Schottky diode millimetre-wave heterodyne receiver,developed by the Millimetre-Wave Technology Group,RAL Space,UK,has been used for laboratory-based analysis of interstellar ice analogues.The sensitivity and stability of the instrument have been characterized to determine its suitability for the desorption experiment.
