To realise higher power filters for cellular applications it is possible to use two dimensional microstrip resonators (such as disks) to equalise the internal current distribution. We have designed and tested such microstrip resonators, fabricated from TBCCO 2212 thin films deposited by RF sputtering onto 10×10mm and 20×20mm LaAlO3, substrates. The Rs of such films has been measured at 24 GHz using a sapphire dielectric resonator and shown to be less than 500 μΩ scaled to 10 GHz and at 80K. Q values of 3-12 GHz disk resonators have demonstrated considerable improvements when compared to both linear HTS microstrip resonators and comparable copper disk resonators. Additionally, the power handling of such resonators has been shown to be superior to that of conventional linear resonators fabricated from similar material.
