Abstract
Boron-doped diamond granular thin films are known to exhibit superconductivity with an optimal critical temperature of Tc=7.2 K. Here, we report the measured in-plane complex surface impedance of boron-doped diamond films in the microwave frequency range using a resonant technique. Experimentally measured inductance values are in good agreement with estimates obtained from the normal state sheet resistance of the material. The magnetic penetration depth temperature dependence is consistent with that of a fully gapped s-wave superconductor. Boron-doped diamond films should find application where high kinetic inductance is needed, such as microwave kinetic inductance detectors and quantum impedance devices.
