abstract = {Superconducting high kinetic inductance elements constitute
a valuable resource for quantum circuit design and
millimeter-wave detection. Granular aluminum (grAl) in the
superconducting regime is a particularly interesting
material since it has already shown a kinetic inductance in
the range of nH/□ and its deposition is compatible with
conventional Al/AlOx/Al Josephson junction fabrication. We
characterize microwave resonators fabricated from grAl with
a room temperature resistivity of 4×103 μΩ cm,
which is a factor of 3 below the superconductor to insulator
transition, showing a kinetic inductance fraction close to
unity. The measured internal quality factors are on the
order of Qi=105 in the single photon regime, and we
demonstrate that nonequilibrium quasiparticles (QPs)
constitute the dominant loss mechanism. We extract QP
relaxation times in the range of 1 s and we observe QP
bursts every ∼20 s. The current level of coherence of
grAl resonators makes them attractive for integration in
quantum devices, while it also evidences the need to reduce
the density of nonequilibrium QPs.},
