A TE-Mode sample plate cavity capable of sustaining peak fields of >90 mT on the surface of a 10cm diameter sample plate has been developed and tested at Cornell. A thermometry mapping system composed of 40 Allen-Bradley resistors, mounted on the outside of the sample plate, is capable of measuring the surface resistance of the sample with a resolution of 1 nOhm and a spatial resolution of 0.5 cm. In this paper we present the design and expected performance of this high field TE cavity, and show data taken with a sample plate of niobium as well as results from tests qualifying the performance of the thermometry mapping system.
