26、ovskite-type Cu-containing oxides, extensive research and development (R requires no sample preparation; does not damage or change the film; is highly repeatable; has great sensitivity (down to 1/1 000ththe Rsof copper); has great dynamic range (up to the Rsof copper); can reach high internal powers

27、 with only modest input powers; and has broad temperature coverage (4,2 K to 150 K). The dielectric resonator method is selected among several methods 5,6,7 to determine the surface resistance at microwave frequencies because it is considered to be the most popular and practical at present. Especial

28、ly, the sapphire resonator is an excellent tool for measuring the Rsof HTS materials 8,9. The test method given in this standard can be also applied to other superconductor bulk plates including low Tc material. This standard is intended to provide an appropriate and agreeable technical base for the

29、 time being to engineers working in the fields of electronics and superconductivity technology. The test method covered in this standard is based on the VAMAS (Versailles Project on Advanced Materials and Standards) pre-standardization work on the thin film properties of superconductors. _ 1)Figures

31、t of IEC 61788 describes measurement of the surface resistance of superconductors at microwave frequencies by the standard two-resonator method. The object of measurement is the temperature dependence of Rsat the resonant frequency. The applicable measurement range of surface resistances for this me

32、thod is as follows: Frequency: 8 GHz 35 0,5 18 7,6 25 0,5 22 6,2 20 0,5 In case of using closed type resonators, the dimensions of the superconductor films shall also be designed taking into account the dimension of the copper cylinder between the superconductor films. A design guideline for the dim

33、ension of the copper cylinder of the closed type resonator is described in Clause A.6. 6.2 Set-up Set up the measurement equipment as shown in Figure 1. All of the measurement apparatus, standard sapphire rods, and superconductor films shall be kept in a clean and dry state as high humidity may degr

34、ade the unloaded Q-value. The specimen and the measurement apparatus shall be fixed in a temperature-controlled cryocooler. The specimen chamber shall be generally evacuated. The temperatures of the superconductor films and standard sapphire rods shall be measured by a diode thermometer, or a thermo

35、couple. The temperatures of the upper and lower superconductor films, and standard sapphire rods must be kept as close as possible. This can be achieved by covering the measurement apparatus with aluminum foil, or filling the specimen chamber with helium gas. 6.3 Measurement of reference level The l

36、evel of full transmission power (reference level) shall be measured first. Fix the output power of the synthesized sweeper below 10 mW because the measurement accuracy depends on the measuring signal level. Connect the reference line of semi-rigid cable between the input and output connectors. Then,

37、 measure the transmission power level over the entire measurement frequency and temperature range. The reference level can change several decibels when temperature of the apparatus is changed from room temperature to the lowest measurement temperature. Therefore, the temperature dependence of the re

38、ference level must be taken into account.

39、idth f, measured at T Kelvin 6.4 Measurement of the frequency response of resonators The temperature dependence of the surface resistance Rscan be obtained through the measurements of resonant frequency f0and unloaded quality factor Qufor TE011and TE013resonators, which shall be measured as follows.

40、 a) Connect the measurement apparatus between the input and output connectors (Figure 1). Insert the standard short sapphire rod near the centre of the lower superconductor film and fix the distance between the rod and each of the loops of the semi-rigid cables to be equal to each other, so that thi

41、s transmission-type resonator can be under-coupled equally to both loops. Put down the upper superconductor film gently to touch the top face of the rod. Be careful not to damage the surface of the superconductor films by excessive pressure. Evacuate and cool down the specimen chamber below the crit

42、ical temperature. b) Find the TE011mode resonance peak of this resonator at a frequency nearly equal to the designed value of f0. c) Narrow the frequency span on the display so that only the resonance peak of TE011mode can be shown (Figure 3). Confirm that the insertion attenuation IA of this mode i

43、s larger than 20 dB from the reference level, which depends strongly on the temperature. d) Measure the temperature dependence of f0and the half power band width f. The loaded Q, QL, of the TE011resonator is given by ffQ=0L(1) e) The unloaded Q-value, Qu, shall be extracted from the QLby at least on

44、e of the two techniques described below. One technique for extracting the unloaded Q-value involves measuring the insertion attenuation IA.

45、technique of using insertion attenuation assumes that the coupling on both sides of the resonator is identical. The coupling loops are difficult to fabricate, the orientation of the loop is difficult to control, and any movement of the sapphire rod during measurement is not known. These assembly dep

46、endent effects are also temperature dependent. This potential asymmetry in coupling can result in large errors in calculating the coupling factor if the coupling is strong (IA 20 dB), asymmetry in the coupling becomes less important. Another technique for extracting the unloaded Q-value involves mea

47、suring the reflection scattering parameters at the resonant frequency of both sides of the resonator. )1(21Lu += QQ (3) |12211111SSS+= (4) |12211222SSS+= (5) In the above equations, S11and S22are the reflection scattering parameters as shown in Figure 4, and are measured in linear units of power, no

48、t relative dB. 1and 2are the coupling coefficients. This technique of using the reflection scattering parameters has two advantages. It does not require the additional step of calibration of the reference level and it gives a measurement of the coupling values for both sides of the resonator. This a

49、lso has two disadvantages. It only works for a narrow band resonance (which is fortunately the case) and is limited by the dynamic range of the network analyzer in measuring the reflection coefficients. A combination of the two techniques is an excellent “double” check and is therefore recommended. f) The f0and Qumeasured for this short rod are denoted as f01and Qu1. By slowly changing the temperature of the cryocooler, the tempera
