Superconducting resonators and devices.

The high-frequency properties of superconductors are reviewed, including the London, Pippard, and Mattis-Bardeen surface impedance, and techniques for measuring and separating losses are discussed. Residual resistance mechanisms are described and evaluated, including high field effects. The state of knowledge is shown to be adequate for engineering design. Applications of superconducting resonators and lines to filters, tuners, oscillators, amplifiers and mixers, transmission lines, antennas, optical and radiation detection, and materials research are discussed.
