Abstract

A resonator consisting of a microstrip spiral, with a reversal in winding direction, is used for a narrowband superconducting filter. The fields are tightly confined, leading to the required small coupling coefficients, without a large separation between resonators. Nevertheless, tunability and power-handling capacity are better than some other resonators with localized fields. A quality factor exceeding a million was achieved. A 148 MHz, 0.1% bandwidth sixth-order quasi-elliptic filter is demonstrated.
