HELEN: Traveling Wave SRF Linear Collider Higgs Factory
S. Belomestnykh, P. C. Bhat, A. Grassellino +7
Traveling wave SRF accelerating structures offer several advantages over the traditional standing wave structures: substantially lower and lower , ratios o…
Quasiparticle spectroscopy in technologically-relevant niobium using London penetration depth measurements
Sunil Ghimire, Kamal R. Joshi, Amlan Datta +10
London penetration depth was measured in niobium foils, thin films, single crystals, and superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavity pieces cut out from different places. The low-…
Phase-controlled improvement of photon lifetime in coupled superconducting cavities
Changqing Wang, Oleksandr S Melnychuk, Crispin Contreras-Martinez +9
High-quality cavities are crucial for various fundamental physical studies and applications. Here we find that by coupling two cavities directly or via a phase-tunable coupling cha…
First Direct Observation of Nanometer size Hydride Precipitations on Superconducting Niobium
Zu Hawn Sung, Arely Cano, Akshay Murthy +5
Superconducting niobium serves as a key enabling material for superconducting radio frequency (SRF) technology as well as quantum computing devices. At room temperature, hydrogen c…
Selective thermal evolution of native oxide layer in Nb and Nb3Sn-coated SRF grade Nb: An in-situ angular XPS study
Arely Cano, Grigory V. Eremeev, Juan R. Zuazo +5
This contribution discusses the results of an in-situ angular XPS study on the thermal evolution of the native oxide layer on Nb3Sn and pure Nb. XPS data were recorded with convent…
Systematic Improvements in Transmon Qubit Coherence Enabled by Niobium Surface Encapsulation
Mustafa Bal, Akshay A. Murthy, Shaojiang Zhu +37
We present a novel transmon qubit fabrication technique that yields systematic improvements in T relaxation times. We fabricate devices using an encapsulation strategy that inv…
