Superconductivity of boron-doped diamond, reported recently at T_c=4 K, is investigated exploiting its electronic and vibrational analogies to MgB2. The deformation potential of the hole states arising from the C-C bond stretch mode is 60%…
We report the temperature dependent magnetic penetration depth $\lambda(T)$ and the superconducting critical field $H_{c2}(T)$ in a 500-nm MgB$_{2}$ film. Our analysis of the experimental results takes into account the two gap nature of the…
Superconducting microwave resonators have recently gained a primary importance in the development of cryogenic applications, such as circuit quantum electrodynamics, electron spin resonance spectroscopy and particles detection for…
Precision measurements of active and reactive components of in-plane microwave surface impedance were performed in single crystals of optimally-doped Fe-based superconductor Ba(Fe1-xCox)2As2 (x = 0.074, Tc = 22.8 K). Measurements in a…
Superconducting MgB2 thin films were prepared on Al2O3(0001) and MgO(100) substrates. Boron thin films were deposited by the electron-beam evaporation followed by post-annealing process with magnesium. Proper post annealing conditions were…
Using mm-wave transmission we obtain information about both the real and imaginary part of the dielectric function of superconducting thin films. This is done by fitting the Fabry-Perot resonance spectrum for the film plus substrate over a…

We report on transport features in heavily boron doped nanocrystalline diamond (BNCD) films which are not seen in conventional (s-wave) granular superconductors. Observations include an anomalous resistance peak near to the superconducting…
In this paper we present the results of measurements of the microwave surface impedance of a powder sample and two films of MgB$_2$. One film has $T_c=30$ K and is not textured, the other is partially c-axis orientated with $T_c=38$ K.…
Absorption of microwave by metallic conductors is exclusively inefficient, though being natively broadband, due to the huge impedance mismatch between metal and free space. Reducing the thickness to ultrathin conductive film may improve the…
We have studied superconducting coplanar-waveguide (CPW) resonators fabricated from disordered (granular) films of Aluminum. Very high kinetic inductance of these films, inherent to disordered materials, allows us to implement ultra-short…
