Methods and structures corresponding to superconducting apparatus including superconducting layers and traces are provided. A method for forming a superconducting apparatus includes forming a first dielectric layer on a substrate by depositing a first dielectric material on the substrate and curing the first dielectric material at a first temperature. The method further includes forming a first superconducting layer comprising a first set of patterned superconducting traces on the first dielectric layer. The method further includes forming a second dielectric layer on the first superconducting layer by depositing a second dielectric material on the first superconducting layer and curing the second dielectric material at a second temperature, where the second temperature is lower than the first temperature. The method further includes forming a second superconducting layer comprising a second set of patterned superconducting traces on the second dielectric layer.
