Abstract: | ![]() The basic physics of superconductivity is reviewed and related to the high-temperature superconductors. The high-frequency characteristics of the new materials are examined, and the two-fluid model is introduced and used to derive an empirical expression for the conductivity of superconductors. The advantages and disadvantages of using these superconductors in the construction of high-frequency transmission lines and passive microwave and millimeter-wave antenna systems are discussed |
