To increase E_{acc}, Bmax, which can be applied to the surface, must also be increased. The A15 materials or multilayer structures are the potential solution to increase Bmax. Since coating and RF testing of full size RF cavities is both expensive and time consuming, one need to evaluate new ideas in superconducting thin films quickly and at low cost. A magnetic field penetration experiment has been designed and built at Daresbury Laboratory to test small superconducting samples. The facility produces a parallel DC magnetic field, which applied from one side of the sample to the other similar to that in an RF cavity. The facility applies an increasing magnetic field at a set temperature to determine the field of full flux penetration which can give an insight into the quality and structure of the superconducting structure. The facility has been characterised using both type I and II superconductors and is now producing results from novel materials.}}, }
