Abstract :
Work at STL is focussed on developing an understanding of high frequency properties of thick film high Tc superconductors and providing design rules for the fabrication of superconducting RF and microwave components and systems. Current work is directed towards the fabrication of components for which present performance is conductor loss limited and the testing of these at frequencies around 1 GHz. In particular the aim is to assess the performance of superconducting transmission lines and resonators formed from transmission lines
