Summary

3. Background Material for Input coupler
Low thermal conductivity is required to suppress heat transfer from outside of cryostat.
High electric conductivity (i.e. low resistance) is required to suppress RF resistance. ↓
Very thin copper plated SUS (0.8mm)
Evaluation of electric conductivity and thermal conductivity of the cu plating is necessary.

6. Sample preparation
During the input coupler production, heat history of 800C will be added in hydrogen atmosphere due to the brazing.
To research the influence of this heat treatment(HT), we prepared 2 types of samples which are heat treated and not heat treated. #Simulation of brazing condition.
3 samples from each types are prepared, 2 samples for RRR measurement, 1 sample for Cu plating thickness measurement.

17. Conclusion
RRR measurement and Cu plating thickness measurement of SUS used for material of input coupler of SC Cavity was done.
There is a difference between measured plating thickness by us and nominal plating thickness by plating vender.
To get high RRR, plating thickness is important.
800C heat treatment exert a negative effect on RRR of plating.
To overcome the bad influence from heat treatment, thickness of the plating must have at least 30 micrometer.
