A microstrip resonator including a dielectric substrate, a resonance
electrode on a first main surface of the dielectric substrate, and a
ground electrode over an entire second main surface of the dielectric
substrate. The resonance electrode includes a superconducting film and a
metal film deposited in that order. The ground electrode includes a
superconducting film and a metal film deposited in that order. The
superconducting film functions as an electrode in low-temperature
operation below a critical temperature, and the metal film functions as
an electrode in high-temperature operation at or above the critical
temperature. The length of the superconducting film of the resonance
electrode is set to be longer than that of the metal film of the
resonance electrode, so that the resonance frequency in low-temperature
operation is substantially equal to the resonance frequency in
high-temperature operation.
