CERN Based Tc Measurement Station for Thin-Film Coated Copper Samples and Results on Related Studies
/ Fonnesu, Dorothea (CERN ; Siegen U.) ; Bremer, Johan (CERN) ; Koettig, Torsten (CERN) ; Laín-Amador, Lucia (CERN) ; Pereira Carlos, Carlota (CERN) ; Rosaz, Guillaume (CERN) ; Vaaranta, Antti (Helsinki U.)
In the framework of the Future Circular Collider (FCC) Study, the development of thin-film coated superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities capable of providing higher accelerating fields (10 to 20 MV/m against 5 MV/m of LHC) represents a major challenge. The development of a test stand commissioned at CERN for the inductive measurement of the critical temperature (Tcc) of SC thin-film deposited on copper samples for SRF application is presented in this work.

Seamless 1.3 GHz Copper Cavities for Nb Coatings: Cold Test Results of Two Different Approaches
/ Vega Cid, Lorena (CERN) ; Atieh, Said (CERN) ; Ferreira, Leonel (CERN) ; Laín-Amador, Lucia (CERN) ; Leith, Stewart (CERN) ; Pereira Carlos, Carlota (CERN) ; Rosaz, Guillaume (CERN) ; Scibor, Karol (CERN) ; Venturini Delsolaro, Walter (CERN) ; Vidal García, Pablo (CERN ; Madrid, CIEMAT)
A necessary condition for high SRF performances in thin film coated cavities is the absence of substrate defects. For instance, in the past, defects originated around electron beam welds in high magnetic field areas have been shown to be the cause of performance limitations in Nb/Cu cavities. [...]

Thick Film Morphology and SC Characterizations of 6 GHz Nb/Cu Cavities
/ Garcia Diaz, Vanessa (INFN, Legnaro ; U. Ferrara (main)) ; Azzolini, Oscar (INFN, Legnaro) ; Chyhyrynets, Eduard (INFN, Legnaro) ; Fonnesu, Dorothea (CERN) ; Keppel, Giorgio (INFN, Legnaro) ; Kugeler, Oliver (Helmholtz-Zentrum, Berlin) ; Pira, Cristian (INFN, Legnaro) ; Stivanello, Fabrizio (INFN, Legnaro) ; Tikhonov, Dmitry (Helmholtz-Zentrum, Berlin) ; Valizadeh, Reza (Daresbury) et al.
Thick films deposited in long pulse DCMS mode onto 6 GHz copper cavities have demonstrated the mitigation of the Q-slope at low accelerating fields. The Nb thick films (~40 microns) show the possibility to reproduce the bulk niobium superconducting properties and morpholo-gy characterizations exhibited dense and void-free films that are encouraging for the scaling of the process to 1.3 GHz cavities.

Nb Coated HIE-ISOLDE QWR Superconducting Accelerating Cavities: From Process Development to Series Production
/ Sublet, Alban (CERN) ; Aviles Santillana, Ignacio (CERN) ; Bartova, Barbora (CERN) ; Calatroni, Sergio (CERN) ; Jecklin, Noemie (CERN) ; Mondino, Irene (CERN) ; Therasse, Mathieu (CERN) ; Venturini Delsolaro, Walter (CERN) ; Zhang, Pei (CERN) ; Cantoni, Marco (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne)
The new HIE-ISOLDE accelerator at CERN requires the production of 32 superconducting cavities (20 high- β and 12 low- β ) in order to increase the energy of the rare isotope beam delivered to the experiments. The Quarter Wave Resonators (QWR) cavities (0.3m diameter and 0.9m height for the high- β ) are made of OFE 3D-forged copper and are coated by DC-bias diode sputtering with a thin superconducting layer of niobium.

Electrodeposition of copper applied to the manufacture of seamless superconducting rf cavities
/ Amador, L Lain (CERN) ; Chiggiato, P (CERN) ; Ferreira, L M A (CERN) ; Garcia-Tabares, E (CERN) ; Koettig, T (CERN) ; Meyer, M S (CERN) ; Perez-Fontenla, A T (CERN) ; Puthran, K (CERN) ; Rosaz, G (CERN) ; Taborelli, M (CERN)
Niobium thin film coated copper superconducting radio frequency elliptical cavities have demonstrated for many years their strong potential as an alternative to bulk niobium cavities. The thin film lower performance at high rf field is often attributed to the defects observed in the elaborated Nb layer, sometimes originated from defects inherited from the substrate itself. [...]

Thermal Mapping of SRF Cavities by Second Sound Detection With Transition Edge Sensors and Oscillating Superleak Transducers
/ Vandoni, Giovanna (CERN) ; Furci, Hernan (Ecole Polytechnique, Lausanne) ; Koettig, Torsten (CERN) ; Macpherson, Alick (CERN) ; Turaj, Katarzyna (CERN) ; Vega Cid, Lorena (CERN)
The SRF cavity testing facilities at CERN include four vertical cryostat stations in SM18 and a cryostat for small cavities in the Cryolab. A large range of structures are tested, from Nb thin film cavities for HIE-Isolde and LHC, to bulk Nb crab cavities for HiLumi or 704 MHz 5-cell high-gradient cavities. [...]
