Abstract

We present the first coplanar waveguide transmission line resonator patterned from a perovskite high T_c superconducting film at 9 GHz. At 77 K the unloaded quality factor Q₀ of the resonator patterned from a YBa₂Cu₃O_7-x film on a MgO substrate is 1300, that is, 14 times higher than that of the copper resonator and 17 times higher than that of the gold resonator at the same temperature. At 4.2 K a Q ₀ factor of 3300 was measured for the YBa₂Cu ₃O_7-x /MgO resonator. Simple calculations of the quality factor show that values of 10 000 at 77 K should be possible using better substrates, films, and etching techniques. This resonator could form the basic structure of more complex microwave filter systems operating at liquid-nitrogen temperatures.
