BSCCO superconducting thin films have been fabricated by co-deposition using IBS(Ion Beam Sputtering) method. Despite setting the composition of thin film Bi2212 or Bi2223, in both cases, Bi2201, Bi2212 and Bi2223 phase were appeared. It was confirmed the obtained field of stabilizing phase was represented in the diagonal direction of the right below end in the Arrhenius plot of temperature of the substrate and PO$_3$, and it was distributed in the rezone. The XRD peak of the generated film continuously changed according to the substrate temperature.

Temperature(T) dependence of the sheet resistance( $R_{$\square$}$) has been investigated on the c-axis oriented thin films of the (Bi2212/Bi2201) mixed crystal with different molar fractions. The $R_{$\square$}$-T superconducting characteristic deteriorated with reduction of the Bi2212 fraction, and almost disappears at 48 mol% where a superconductor-to-insulator transition took place, with the resistance on the normal state, RN, reaching 4.l㏀ at 80 K. This $R_{N}$ value is close to the universal quantum number, h/(2e)$^2$≡6.5㏀ predicted by the Kosterlitz-Thouless(KT) transition theory. The $R_{$\square$}$-T characteristics of the 48 mol% thin film can be elucidated as a competitive process of KT transition brought about by charge or vortex in the two-dimensional layer structure.e.

Dual mode ring resonators(DMRR) have been fabricated using laser ablated $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ superconducting thin films. The transition temperature of YBCO thin films were 85 - 88 K and the film thicknesses were about 5,000 $\AA$. Dual mode ring resonators were patterned by standard photolithography process and wet-etching. Then two-layer metal thin films (Ti/Ag) have been deposited for the ground plane on the back side of substrate by e-beam and thermal evaporation. The input/output feedline angles of each resonator were $60^{\circ}$, $100^{\circ}$, $180^{\circ}$. A network analyzer was used for testing the performance of the resonators in the frequency range of 6-13 GHz at 77 K.

We have grown superconducting thin films on various substrates using a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. $YBa_2Cu_3O_7-\delta$ (YBCO) superconducting thin films with the superconducting transition temperature ($T_{c. offset}$) of 87K were grown on Si substrates using yittria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) and $CeO_2$ double buffer layers. We have developed a large area pulsed laser deposition system. The system was designed to deposit up to 6 different materials on a large area substrate up to 7.5cm in diameter without breaking a vacuum. The preliminary runs of the deposition of YBCO superconducting thin films on $SrTiO_3$ substrate using this system showed a very uniform thickness profile over the entire substrate holder area. $T_{c}$ of the deposited YBCO thin film, however, was scattered depending on the position and the highest value was 85K.

The superconducting thin films deposited on $SiO_x$ substrate by R.F magnetron sputter using $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ single target have been made and annealed at $940^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The thickness of films were 1000-2000${\AA}$ with a rate of 20-25${\AA}/min$ and superconducting properties of thin films depended on the compositions of pre-annealed the thin films. It has been analyzed by SEM photo-analysis and X-ray diffraction patterns of these samples obtained under the various conditions of this sputtering methods. and recognized the supperconducting thin films by electric properties.

A flux-lock type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) consists of two coils, which are wound in parallel each other through an iron core, and a high-$T_c$ Superconducting(HTSC) thin film connected in series with coil 2. If the current of the HTSC thin film exceeds its critical current by the fault accident, the resistance of the HTSC thin film generated, and thereby the fault current can be limited by the impedance of the fluk-lock type SFCL. In this paper, we investigated the dependence of both the fault current limiting characteristics and the current distribution between two coils on the operational current of the flux-lock type SFCL through the equivalent circuit analyses and short circuit tests. From the comparison of both the results, the experimental results well agreed with the analyses for equivalent circuit.

We fabricated a resistive superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) of meander type based on a YBCO film. In order to disperse the heat generated at hot spots in the YBCO film the film was coated with a gold shunt layer. When diodes were inserted in the parallel circuit to restrict the temperature increase in the SFCL element by reducing power supply cycles, the voltage could be increased to $\sqrt{2}$ times with the same quench resistance at a half and full cycles.

We present current limiting properties of 1.2kV/70A superconducting fault current limiter based on YBCO thin films. This is consisted of 6 wafers (3 parallel ${\times}$ 2 serial connection) with 4 inch-diameter YBCO thin film. The quench current Iq of the switching elements vary between 33.9 and 35.6 A. Within the difference of 0.5 A in the sum of quench current Iq in two stacks, the serial connection of the stacks showed the simultaneous quench behavior in applied power of 1.2 kV /70 A.

A high-temperature superconducting 1.78 GHz bandpass filter, designed for PCS applications, is presented. The structure consists of microstrip pseudo-lumped elements, which enables miniaturization of the filter. A 5-pole microstrip filter could be realized on a 37 mm $\times$ 9 mm $LaAlO_3$ substrate, using double-sided high-temperature superconducting $YBa_2Cu_3O{7-\delta}$ thin film. This filter showed 0.7 % fractional bandwidth, 0.3 dB insertion loss, and 12 dB return loss in the passband at 60 K.

We have designed and developed narrow bandpass multipole filters for satellite communication using $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(YBCO) thin films on MgO substrates. The superconducting film used in this study was prepared by laser ablation on one side polished MgO (100) substrates. A Nd:YAG laser was used to fabricate YBCO thin films. The wave length of the laser was 355 nm. The laser beam was focused onto a YBCO target rotating linearly to avoid deep craters that may eject macroscopic YBCO particles. The YBCO films were grown at $750^{\circ}C$ in the oxygen partial pressure of 200 mTorr. The deposited YBCO thin films were patterned by conventional wet-etching method. The transition temperatures of YBCO thin films were 85 - 88 K and the film thicknesses were about 5,000 $\AA$. By comparing the performances of normal-metal filters and YBCO filters, we observed that superconducting YBCO multipole filters have been showed superior performances at 77 K.
