Optical microresonators with high quality ($Q$) factors are essential to a wide range of integrated photonic devices. Steady efforts have been directed towards increasing microresonator $Q$ factors across a variety of platforms. With…

We have studied Nb lambda/2 coplanar-waveguide (CPW) resonators whose resonant frequencies are 10-11 GHz. The resonators have different film thicknesses, t=0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 um. We measured at low temperatures, T=0.02-5 K, one of the…

We present research on the superconducting properties of Nb$_{x}$Re$_{1-x}$ ($x$ = 0.13-0.38) obtained by measuring the electrical resistivity $\rho(T)$, magnetic susceptibility $\chi(T)$, specific heat $C_P(T)$, and London penetration…

Due to the value of the isotope shift in sulfur hydrides, a phonon-mediated pairing scenario of superconductivity is generally accepted for these high-temperature superconductors which is consistent with the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS)…

For half a century after the discovery of superconductivity, materials exploration for better superconductors proceeded without knowledge of the underlying mechanism. The 1957 BCS theory cleared that up: the superconducting state occurs due…
