IntroductionThe superconductor accelerator cavity is one of the most important andperspective technology for an advance accelerator. For example, the InternationalCommittee for Future Accelerators decided that the Linear Collider design had beenbased on the superconductor technology. Moreover, the accelerator operating withcontinue wave (CW) mode must use the superconductor technology in stead of thenormal conductor technology, such as the Accelerator-driven sub-critical reactorsystem (ADS), the Accelerator Transmutation of Waste (ATW), the AcceleratorProduction of Tritium (APT), and so on.In order to meet all kinds of application, the scientific world interest is now focuson further developments of new resonant cavities fabrication techniques to reduce costand improve the performance of the accelerator cavity. To realize this object, one ofthe important methods is to pursue research on new materials. The goal will be theachievement of superconducting cavity working better the Nb ones at 4.2K. Forexample, the better parameters of the T c , the surface resistance, the critical field H cand the Q value are needed.Up to now, the most possible candidate is Nb 3 Sn. The Nb 3 Sn has not only thebetter superconductivity parameters, but also the stable property and the easyfabrication. There are two methods to fabricate the superconductor cavity with theNb 3 Sn, which are including the diffusion method and the multilayer depositionmethod. In the thesis, we focus on the multilayer deposition method, and the contentof each chapter is followed:In chapter 1, we discuss why we select the Nb 3 Sn as the function material for thesuperconductor cavity fabrication.In chapter 2, we first investigate the Nb thin film deposition on the sapphire, andanalysis the result of the deposition experiment.In chapter 3, the Nb 3 Sn multilayer thin film is first deposited on the sapphire, andthen deposited on the Nb sample. The deposition experiment results are also analyzedwith T c and crystal structure.The outline of this thesis is shown as follow:1
