	In this study we present new insight on low temperature nitrogen infusion on bulk niobium superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities. Nitrogen infusion is a thermal treatment recently discovered at Fermilab that allows to reach high accelerating gradients, of the order of 45MV/m, with high Q-factors, of the order of 2 · 10¹⁰. Detailed depth dependent RF studies (by means of subsequent HF rinses) and comparisonwith SIMS results pinpointed interstitial nitrogen as the responsible for the improved performance and uncovered the extension of its profile inside the material.

WEPML013	Anti-Q-slope enhancement in high-frequency niobium cavities	2707
	M. Martinello, S. Aderhold, S.K. Chandrasekaran, M. Checchin, A. Grassellino, O.S. Melnychuk, S. Posen, A.S. Romanenko, D.A. Sergatskov Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA
	N-doped 1.3 GHz niobium cavities showed for the first time the so-called anti-Q-slope, i.e. the increasing of the Q-factor as a function of the accelerating field. It was verified that the anti-Q-slope is consequence of the decreasing of the temperature-dependent component of the surface resistance as a function of the field. This trend is opposite compared to the increasing of the surface resistance previously observed in 1.3 GHz standard (EP, BCP, 120 C baked) niobium cavities. The effect of the different state-of-the-art surface treatments on the field dependence of the surface resistance is studied for 650 MHz, 1.3 GHz, 2.6 GHz and 3.9 Ghz cavities. This proceeding shows that the field dependence of the temperature-dependent component of the surface resistance has a strong frequency dependence and that the anti-Q-slope may appear even in clean niobium cavities if the resonant frequency is high enough, suggesting new routes toward the understanding of the anti-Q-slope effect.

WEPML016	Development of Nb3Sn Coatings for Superconducting RF Cavities at Fermilab	2718
	S. Posen, S.K. Chandrasekaran, O.S. Melnychuk, D.A. Sergatskov, B. Tennis, Y. Trenikhina Fermilab, Batavia, Illinois, USA J. Lee NU, Evanston, Illinois, USA
	Nb3Sn films are a promising alternative material for su-perconducting RF cavities, with proven high quality factors at medium fields and predictions for increased superheating field as well. In this contribution, we de-scribe the latest results from the Fermilab Nb3Sn SRF program. Early experiments have been focused on single cell 1.3 GHz cavities. We briefly review efforts to bring the parameters used in the coating process into a range where they produce uniform surfaces without regions showing signs of excess tin or thin/uncoated areas. We then present the latest cavity results, after modifications to the coating recipe based on feedback from film appear-ance and RF performance. These results show high Q0 at medium fields and a maximum field of ~18 MV/m.

Nb3Sn films are a promising alternative material for su-perconducting RF cavities, with proven high quality factors at medium fields and predictions for increased superheating field as well. In this contribution, we de-scribe the latest results from the Fermilab Nb3Sn SRF program. Early experiments have been focused on single cell 1.3 GHz cavities. We briefly review efforts to bring the parameters used in the coating process into a range where they produce uniform surfaces without regions showing signs of excess tin or thin/uncoated areas. We then present the latest cavity results, after modifications to the coating recipe based on feedback from film appear-ance and RF performance. These results show high Q0 at medium fields and a maximum field of ~18 MV/m.
