	Superconducting accelerator cavities coated with Nb3Sn have already demonstrated significantly higher unloaded quality factors than standard niobium cavities at surface magnetic fields <30 mT. Theoretical predictions suggest that the maximum critical field of such cavities could be twice that of niobium cavities. Significant facilities have been developed at Cornell University to fabricate Nb3Sn using the vapor diffusion technique. In this paper, recent progress is presented from our Nb3Sn program. The first RF results from a test of a Nb3Sn sample in a TE pillbox sample cavity are presented as well as first images of the newly constructed apparatus for coating full 1.3 GHz single cell cavities.

	Funding: Work supported by NSF and Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. In order to measure surface resistance of new materials other than niobium such as Nb3Sn and MgB2, two sample host niobium cavities operating at TE modes have been developed at Cornell University. The first one is a 6GHz pillbox TE011 cavity modified from an older vision enabling testing 2.75'' diameter flat sample plates. The second one is an optimized mushroom-shape niobium cavity operating at both 5GHz TE012 and 6GHz TE013 modes for 3.75'' diameter flat sample plates . First results from the commissioning of the two TE cavities will be reported.
