Abstract :
Various techniques involving coplanar waveguide transmission lines, coplanar resonators, and interdigital capacitors, have been employed to characterize the dielectric properties of Ba0.05Sr0.95TiO3 thin films at cryogenic conditions. The devices were patterned from a high-temperature superconductor deposited on top of a single Ba0.05Sr0.95 TiO3 thin film. The measurements from these various techniques show a good agreement
