Abstract Thin-film superconductors have the potential for reduced cost and for improved SRF performance over traditional bulk niobium superconducting cavities. Materials such as Nb3Sn, multilayer NbN/MgO, and thin-film Nb are currently under investigation for cost reduction or possible improvements in RF losses and accelerating gradients. Due to the complex geometries of traditional RF cavities, it is preferable to use a sample host cavity to study flat samples of the novel materials. The Cornell sample host cavity has been commissioned and has now reached peak magnetic surface fields of 100 mT. We present updates on the recent performance of the cavity.
