Abstract :
The authors report investigations of picosecond transient propagation on normal and superconducting transmission lines and results of a variety of lines that include YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) coplanar lines, a superconducting coaxial cable, and a dielectric-matched gold-line structure. A previously developed algorithm for analyzing transient propagation was used to identify the dominant mechanisms for signal distortion in most of these cases, and the essential properties of all tested to date are summarized for a direct comparison
