Abstract :
Since their discovery in 1987, high temperature superconducting materials have promised to revolutionize the microwave device industry. Much process has been made in developing high quality microwave devices that possess much lower insertion loss than conventional devices. Switchable and tunable band reject filter technology has been developed by the Advanced Research Projects Agency and the Avionics Directorate of Wright Laboratory. Applications and test results have been promising and will be discussed
