For the c-axis oriented epitaxial YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ thin film on r-cut sapphire substrate it is necessary to deposit buffer layers. The CeO$_2$buffer layer was deposited on sapphire substrate using RF magnetron sputtering system. We investigated XRD pattern of CeO$_2$thin films at various sputtering conditions such as sputtering gas ratio, sputtering power, target to substrate distance, sputtering pressure and substrate temperature. The optimum condition was 15 mTorr with deposition pressure, 1:1.2 with $O_2$and Ar ratio and 9cm with target to substrate distance. The CeO$_2$(200) peak was notable for a deposition temperature above 75$0^{\circ}C$. The YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ was deposited on CeO$_2$buffered r-cut sapphire substrate using pulsed laser ablation. The YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$CeO$_2$(200)/A1$_2$O$_3$thin film was exhibited a critical temperature of 89K.xhibited a critical temperature of 89K.

YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) films grown on CeO$_2$-buffered r-cut sapphire substrates (CbS's) were prepared and their structural and electrical properties were measured. Post-annealed CeO$_2$ films were used as buffer layers for the experiments. It turned out that the YBCO films grown on post-annealed CbS's had the rms roughness of less than 20 ${\AA}$ and peak-to-peak roughness of about 30 ${\AA}$ when the YBCO film thickness was 3000 ${\AA}$. Meanwhile, YBCO films on in-situ grown CeO$_2$ buffer layers on r-cut sapphire substrates appeared to have the peak-to-peak roughness of more than 450 ${\AA}$. X-ray diffraction data revealed that the YBCO flms were epitaxially grown along the c-axis with the typical FWHM of(005) ${\theta}$ -2 ${\theta}$ peak about 0. 16 $^{\circ}$ and ${\Delta}$ ${\omega}$ of the (005) peak about 0.5 $^{\circ}$. T$_c$ > 87 K, ${\Delta}$T < 1 K and R(look)/R(100K) ${\ge}$3 were observed from the YBCO films. Applicability of the YBCO films for high-frequency applications was described.

Effects of the post-annealing temperature of CeO$_2$ buffer layers on the properties of YBCO films on CeO$_2$-buffered sapphire were investigated. 45 nm-thick CeO$_2$ buffer layer was prepared in-situ on r-cut sapphire using an on-axis rf magnetron sputtering method, which was later post-annealed at temperatures between 950$^{\circ}$C and 1100$^{\circ}$C in an oxygen-flowing environment. YBCO films were prepared on CeO$_2$-buffered sapphire (CbS), for which the surface morphology, crystal structures and electrical properties of the YBCO films were studied. YBCO films on post-annealed CbS appeared to have better properties than those on as-grown CbS with regard to the morphological, structural and electrical properties when the YBCO films were prepared on CeO$_2$ buffer layer post-annealed at temperatures of 1000 - 1050$^{\circ}$C. A TE$_{011}$ mode rutileloaded cylindrical cavity resonators was fabricated with the YBCO films placed as the endplates, for which the unloaded Q of the resonator was measured. It turned out that the resonator with the endplates prepared from the YBCO films on postannealed CbS at 1000 $^{\circ}$C showed the highest unloaded Q with the value more than 8 ${\times}$ 10$^5$ at 30 K and 8.6 CHz, revealing that the YBCO films on post-annealed CbS at 1000$^{\circ}$C the temperature could be the lowest among the YBCO films on post-annealed CbS.

We have fabricated a modified hairpin-type YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) 2-pole microstrip bandpass filter with the center frequency of 5.8 GHz. We designed a hairpin-type filter with interdigital-coupled inner poles to improve the filter performance. Compared to a typical hairpin-type filter of the same size, the center frequency, the bandwidth and the insertion loss appeared smaller by 14.5% ,29.6%, and 0.55 dB, respectively. The dimensions of the filter were 13.7mm ${\times}$3.3 mm. YBCO films deposited on r-cut sapphire buffered with a CeO$_2$thin layer were used fur making the filter.

Temperature dependences of the unloaded Ｑ(Ｑ$_{0}$) and the resonant frequency ( $f_{0}$) of YB $a_2$C $u_3$ $O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) microstrip ring resonators and rutile-loaded cylindrical cavity resonators were measured at low temperatures. Dc magnetron-sputtered YBCO films grown on Ce $O_2$-buffered r-cut sapphire (CbS) substrates were used fur this purpose. The surface resistances ( $R_{s}$) of YBCO films measured by both a microstrip ring resonator and a TE $01\delta$/ mode rutile-loaded cylindrical cavity resonator are compared with each other. It turned out that the values of $R_{s}$ measured by the microstrip resonator technique are comparable to those by the rutile-loaded resonator technique at temperatures lower than ~50 K. However, above 50 K, the $R_{s}$ measured by the microstrip resonator technique appeared higher according to the temperature. Our results show that the current crowding effects near the edge of a microstrip resonator become more significant at temperatures near the critical temperature.emperature.e.e.e.e.e.e.
