Thin film Nb3Sn is a promising candidate to outperform bulk Nb in next generation particle accelerators. Bulk Nb is a well elaborated material for the superconducting radio frequency (SRF) application. However, this technology has reached its physical limits. Thin film Nb3Sn is able to push the limits or save tremendous amounts of energy during operation. Unfortunately, the possible acceleration gradients of about 90 MV/m are not reached. Local deviations of the local stoichiometry and grain boundary segregations can be a possible explanation for this. To improve the local homogeneity and grain boundary conditions, a co-sputtering process is used. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy(XAS) mappings and X-ray diffraction (XRD) are used to show different grain boundary and phase conditions. Resistance versus field and resistance versus temperature measurements demonstrate the role of grain boundary and phase of the present Nb3Sn thin films.
