Frequency dependence of BCS and residual resistance using multi-mode measurement of nitrogen-doped single-cell elliptical cavities

Various cavity surface treatments have been found to significantly improve cavity quality factor, Q0, with one such treatment being nitrogen-doping (N-doping). N-doped 1.3 GHz cavities were the first found to exhibit anti-Q slope, the increase of Q0 with accelerating field, Eacc. However, even with the use of the same N-doping recipes, this anti-Q slope behavior has not been realized in sub-GHz frequency cavities. In this study, we measured the Q0 and surface resistance, RS, of our N-doped, single-cell, elliptical cavity for both the 644 MHz fundamental mode (FM) and 1.45 GHz higher-order mode (HOM). As a result of multi-mode measurements, the BCS and residual resistances, the temperature-dependent and temperature-in-dependent RF surface resistances, could be determined without the influence of cavity-to-cavity surface treatment variations. We will discuss the frequency-dependent behaviors of the BCS and residual resistances.
