abstract = {{Cold spray is a lower-temperature solid-state thermal spray process that deposits metal powder using a heated inert gas through a supersonic nozzle. When the material hits at supersonic speed and reaches the critical speed, the particles themselves are plastically deformed to form a film. The material of the superconducting cavity is niobium, a very expensive rare metal. To reduce the amount of niobium and the cost, we propose a novel manufacturing method of forming a thick niobium film on the surface of a mandrel by cold spray using niobium powder and removing the mandrel to finish a hollow shape. We confirmed the feasibility of the proposed method using a model similar to a 3.9 GHz one-cell cavity. Also, the RRR measurement of the niobium specimen made by cold spray was carried out and the measured value of 11 was obtained. We report on these results.}},
