Nanomechanical resonators based on 2d materials show high mechanical quality factors and extraordinary force sensitivities. A common problem limiting graphene based resonators are electronical losses due to charge movements induced by mechanical motion or the electrical readout. One promising way to overcome this issue are superconducting 2d membranes potentially suppressing electrical losses. Here we demonstrate a hybrid membrane composed of superconducting three layer thick NbSe2 encapsulated in 1-2 layers of graphene. The resonator is probed by means of capacitive coupling to a superconducting microwave cavity enabling high precision readout of the resonance frequency. We measure a mechanical quality factor of over 200,000 showing the general applicability of such heterostructures in resonators. Additionally, the quality factor is more stable in comparison to graphene only resonators when varying the gate voltage, which can be attributed to a reduced electrical resistance.
