Description
Recent work at Fermilab has focused on combining materials studies with RF characterization to better understand and extend the performance of niobium SRF cavities. This contribution will present recent results from impurity engineering and co-doping studies, developments in alternative cavity geometries, and progress toward reproducible high-Q and high-gradient performance. Particular emphasis will be placed on how these approaches are being used to identify and mitigate limitations in cavity performance.
