A resonant clock-power distribution network is critical for scaling energy efficient superconducting digital technology to practical high integration density circuits. High-k, tunable capacitors enable implementation of a resonant power delivery network supporting circuits with up to 400 Mdevices/cm2. We report the cryogenic characterization of Metal-Insulator-Metal capacitors using a Hafnium Zirconium Oxide (HZO) ferroelectric insulating layer and Niobium Titanium Nitride (NbTiN) superconducting electrodes. The fabricated chip includes capacitor arrays for low frequency characterization and a half-wave transmission line resonator for RF characterization. A specific capacitance of 3 uF/cm2, DC leakage current of 10-8 A/cm2 at 2 V and a constant 5 percent tunability up to 4 GHz were measured at 2.6 K.
