Abstract

Identifying the loss mechanisms of niobium film cavities enables an accurate\ndetermination of applications for future accelerator projects and points to\nresearch topics required to mitigate their limitations. Measurements on samples\nshow that the electric field is a dominant loss mechanism for niobium films,\nacting through interface tunneling between localized states in surface oxides\nand delocalized states in the superconducting niobium.\n
