TI - SRF Thin Films: Not just for Cavities J2 - Proc. of SRF2023, Grand Rapids, MI, USA, 25-30 June 2023 CY - Grand Rapids, MI, USA T2 - International Conference on RF Superconductivity T3 - 21 LA - english AB - Recent years have seen renewed interest and activities in developing SRF cavity materials based on thin film technologies. In this framework, considerable progress has been achieved in the development of high quality films and layered structures along with associated deposition techniques such as ECR, HiPIMS, and ALD. Beyond cavity applications, the developments in SRF thin film technologies find a variety of applications in the fields of superconducting metamaterials, electronics, sensors and quantum devices. High quality Nb films with high RRR open the way for enhanced coherence times for quantum qbits. Other SRF thin films such as NbTiN are developed for superconducting backend processes for future generations of computing hardware and radiation-hard sensors for nuclear and high-energy physics. The unifying theme across these technologies is that the same physics and material properties such as extreme low loss, stability, and manufacturability are required. This talk will present an overview of the emerging applications of SRF films and structures beyond accelerator cavities. PB - JACoW Publishing CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
