Microwave Q-factor of a dielectric resonator sandwiched between two thin films of superconductor

Abstract

This analysis provides a comparison between the computed and the measured Q-factors of a microwave resonator consisting of a dielectic resonator sandwiched between two thin films of superconductor using the Bose statistics and the Gorter and Casimir model for a two-fluid model. Such comparisons are helpful not only to design ultrahigh-Q resonators but also in considering the theory of thin films of HTS (high-temperature superconductors).
