Effects of processing history on the evolution of surface damage layer and dislocation substructure in large grain niobium cavities

Large grain niobium (Nb) is being investigated for fabricating superconducting radiofrequency cavities as an alternative to the traditional approach using fine grain polycrystalline Nb sheets. Past studies have identified a surface damage layer on fine grain cavities due to deep drawing and demonstr...
