Abstract
We report microwave impedance measurements of a superconductor-semiconductor hybrid nanowire device with three terminals (3T). Our technique makes use of transmission line resonators to acquire the nine complex scattering matrix parameters (S-parameters) of the device on fast timescales and across a spectrum of frequencies spanning 0.3 - 7 GHz. Via comparison with dc-transport measurements, we examine the utility of this technique for probing the local and non-local response of 3T devices where capacitive and inductive contributions can play a role. Such measurements require careful interpretation but may be of use in discerning true Majorana zero modes from trivial states arising from disorder.
