A. Andreone et al., SURFACE IMPEDANCE MEASUREMENTS OF SUPERCONDUCTING V3SI FILMS BY A MICROSTRIP RESONATOR TECHNIQUE, Journal of applied physics, 78(3), 1995, pp. 1862-1865
Using a ring microstrip resonator technique, the surface impedance of
V3Si sputtered films has been measured as a function of temperature an
d de and rf field amplitude. The results are analyzed in terms of the
Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory and of a grain-boundary Josephson mod
el, and discussed in the framework of the possible application of V3Si
as a thin-film coating of superconducting rf cavities for particle ac
celerators. (C) 1995 American Institute of Physics.
