Niobium-3 tin is a promising material for next-generation superconducting RF cavities due to its high critical temperature and high theoretical field limit. There is currently significant worldwide effort aiming to improve Nb₃Sn growth to push this material to its ultimate performance limits. This talk will present an overview of Nb₃Sn cavity development at Cornell University. One approach we are pursuing is to further advance the vapor diffusion process through optimized nucleation and film thickness. Additionally, we are exploring alternative Nb₃Sn growth methods, such as the development of a plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system, as well as Nb₃Sn growth via electrochemical synthesis.

	The Cornell High Pulsed Power Sample Host Cavity (CHPPSHC) is designed to measure the temperature-dependent superheating fields of future SRF materials and thereby gain insights into the ultimate limits of their performance. Theoretical estimation of the superheating fields of SRF materials is challenging and mostly has been done for temperatures near the critical temperature or in the infinite kappa limit. Experimental data currently available is incomplete, and often impacted by material defects and their resulting thermal heating, preventing finding the fundamental limits of theses materials. The CHPPSHC system allows reaching RF fields in excess of half a Tesla within microseconds on material samples by utilizing high pulsed power, thereby outrunning thermal effects. We are principally interested in the superheating field of Nb₃Sn, a material of interest for the SRF community, and present here the current fabrication and assembly status of the CHPPSHC as well as early results.
