[摘要]:We experimentally investigate the vortex induced energy losses in niobium coplanar waveguide resonators with and without quasihexagonal arrays of nanoholes (antidots), where large-area antidot patterns have been fabricated using self-assembling microsphere lithography. We perform transmission spectroscopy experiments around 6.25 GHz in magnetic field cooling and zero field cooling procedures with perpendicular magnetic fields up to B = 27 mT at a temperature T = 4.2 K. We find that the introduction of antidot arrays into resonators reduces vortex induced losses by more than one order of magnitude. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3673869]
