Abstract

High-frequency properties of resonant structures based on thin films of YBa2Cu3O7–δ high-temperature superconductor are studied experimentally in the frequency range 30–100 MHz. The structures planar induction coils with a self-capacitance fabricated on neodymium gallate and lanthanum aluminate substrates. The unloaded Q factor of the circuits exceeds 2 × 105 at 77 K and 40 MHz. Possible loss mechanisms that determine the Q factor of the superconducting resonant structures in the megahertz range are considered.
