Kinetic planar resonators from strongly disordered ultra-thin MoC superconducting films investigated by transmission line spectroscopy

"The non-contact broadband transmission line flip-chip spectroscopy technique is utilized to probe resonances of mm-sized square kinetic planar resonators made from strongly disordered molybdenum carbide films, in the GHz frequency range. The temperature dependence of the resonances was analyzed by the complex conductivity of disordered superconductor, as proposed in Ref. arXiv:1407.2402 , which involves the Dynes superconducting density of states. The obtained Dynes broadening parameters relate reasonably to the ones estimated from scanning tunneling spectroscopy measurements. The eigenmodes of the kinetic planar 2D resonator were visualized by EM model in Sonnet software. The proper understanding of the nature of these resonances can help to eliminate them, or utilize them e.g. as filters."
