Abstract

Precision measurements of the microwave surface resistance Rs of in situ MgB2 films directly reveal an exponential behavior of Rs at low temperature indicating a fully-gapped order parameter. The entire temperature dependence of Rs is well described by a Mattis–Bardeen formalism, but with a small gap ratio of Δ(0)/kTc=0.72, corresponding to Δ(0)=1.9 meV.
