arXiv:2603.25258v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce a multilayer superconducting microwave resonator with sub-Ohm impedance optimized for high coupling strength to single electron spins. The design minimizes the magnetic far-field and therefore achieves a Purcell factor $F_P > 10^{15}$. We show several ways to fabricate this type of resonator and present resonators with an intrinsic $Q$-factor exceeding $2 \cdot 10^4$ at the single-photon level. We further characterize these resonators

We introduce a multilayer superconducting microwave resonator with sub-Ohm impedance optimized for high coupling strength to single electron spins. The design minimizes the magnetic far-field and therefore achieves a Purcell factor F_P > 10^{15}. We show several ways to fabricate this type of resonator and present resonators with an intrinsic Q-factor exceeding 2 \cdot 10^4 at the single-photon level. We further characterize these resonators in magnetic fields up to 500 \, \text{mT}. Finally, we evaluate the impact of the achievable Purcell factor on single-spin detection through photon counting and dispersive readout.
