Abstract

A thin-film superconducting LC network comprising a dielectric substrate having first and second oppositely disposed surfaces, a first thin-film superconducting conductor on one of the surfaces defining an inductor, second and third thin-film superconducting conductors on said first and second surfaces, respectively, said second and third conductors opposing each other and having at least a portion of the dielectric substrate therebetween to form a capacitor, and thin-film superconducting conductor for interconnecting the inductor and capacitor to form a desired LC network. In one embodiment, the substrate between the second and third conductors have a thickness less than the thickness of the substrate between the first conductor and it oppositely disposed surface. In another embodiment, the inductor is defined by a plurality of closely spaced adjacent turns and a channel is disposed within the substrate between the adjacent turns.
