Advantage of YBCO on Kapton technology
High critical temperature

Due to significant compression YBCO on dielectric has very high critical temperature.
High carrier density

The exfoliated surface is free from secondary phases and precipitates, therefore the carrier density is high.
Excellent surface quality

Low roughness of the exfoliated surface ensures ultra-low insertion loss
