Abstract
We have experimentally explored and carefully characterized the important properties of TiN, including the resistivity, nonlinear kinetic inductance, the anomalous electro-dynamical response, and the two-level-system induced frequency shift and noise. We suggest that some of these properties, which are not well understood and are different from conventional superconductors, need further study and special consideration in kinetic inductance detector and parametric amplifier applications.
