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.

We analyze the influence of the surface passivation produced by oxides on the superconducting properties of $gamma$-Mo$_2$N ultra-thin films. The superconducting critical temperature of thin films grown directly on Si (100) with those using a buffer
and a capping layer of AlN are compared. The results show that the cover layer avoids the presence of surface oxides, maximizing the superconducting critical temperature for films with thicknesses of a few nanometers. We characterize the flux-flow instability measuring current-voltage curves in a 6.4 nm thick Mo$_2$N film with a superconducting critical temperature of 6.4 K. The data is analyzed using the Larkin and Ovchinnikov model. Considering self-heating effects due to finite heat removal from the substrate, we determine a fast quasiparticle relaxation time $approx$ 45 ps. This value is promising for its applications in single-photon detectors.
We have studied the electrodynamic response of strongly disordered superconducting TiN films using microwave resonators, where the disordered superconductor is the resonating element in a high- quality superconducting environment of NbTiN. We describ
e the response assuming an effective pair-breaking mechanism modifying the density of states, and compare this to local tunnelling spectra obtained using scanning tunnelling spectroscopy. For the least disordered film (kFl = 8.7, Rs = 13 {Omega}), we find good agreement, whereas for the most disordered film (kFl = 0.82, Rs = 4.3 k{Omega}), there is a strong discrepancy, which signals the breakdown of a model based on uniform properties.
We introduce a microwave circuit architecture for quantum signal processing combining design principles borrowed from high-Q 3D resonators in the quantum regime and from planar structures fabricated with standard lithography. The resulting 2.5D whisp
ering-gallery mode resonators store 98% of their energy in vacuum. We have measured internal quality factors above 3 million at the single photon level and have used the device as a materials characterization platform to place an upper bound on the surface resistance of thin film aluminum of less than 250nOhms.
We use both Eilenberger-Usadel and Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory to calculate the superfluids temperature-dependent kinetic inductance for all currents up to the depairing current in thin and narrow superconducting films. The calculations apply to BCS
weak-coupling superconductors with isotropic gaps and transport mean-free paths much less than the BCS coherence length. The kinetic inductance is calculated for the response to a small alternating current when the film is carrying a dc bias current. In the slow-experiment/fast-relaxation limit, in which the superconducting order parameter quasistatically follows the time-dependent current, the kinetic inductance diverges as the bias current approaches the depairing value. However, in the fast-experiment/slow-relaxiation limit, in which the the superconducting order parameter remains fixed at a value corresponding to the dc bias current, the kinetic inductance rises to a finite value at the depairing current. We then use time-dependent GL theory to calculate the kinetic impedance of the superfluid, which includes not only the kinetic reactance but also the kinetic resistance of the superfluid arising from dissipation due to order-parameter relaxation. The kinetic resistance is largest for angular frequencies $omega$ obeying $omega tau_s > 1$, where $tau_s$ is the order-parameter relaxation time, and for bias currents close to the depairing current. We also include the normal fluids contribution to dissipation in deriving an expression for the total kinetic impedance. The Appendices contain many details about the temperature-dependent behavior of superconductors carrying current up to the depairing value.
We have used a neon focused-ion-beam to fabricate both nanoscale Nb Dayem bridges and NbN phase-slip nanowires located at the short-circuited end of quarter-wavelength coplanar waveguide resonators. The Dayem bridge devices show flux-tunability and i
ntrinsic quality factor exceeding 10,000 at 300 mK up to local fields of at least 60 mT. The NbN nanowires show signatures of incoherent quantum tunnelling of flux at 300 mK.
