Abstract

We have measured very low microwave losses in Y-Ba-Cu-0 fifth wave ring re- sonators. We deposited the Y-Ba-Cu-0 film on (1012) non-buffered sapphire sub- strates and patterned microwave circuites. High-Tc microstrip resonators de- monstrated best Q-factor greater then 800 at 31 GHz, corresponding to surfaceresistences less than 3,0 mohm. Indetical copper resonator showed Q's of 500and surface resistance of 27 mohm. We show that the losses in the high losssamples can be accounted for by the presence of small fractions of c-axis- aligned grains highly misaligned in the plane of those films. Volume fractionof highly misagned c-axis-oriented grains as 3% lead to losses above 3 mohm.
