Nonlinear microwave properties of two high-quality YBaCuO thin films on MgO substrate have been studied in zero and finite dc magnetic lield (up to 12 mT) at 8 and 16 GHz using the coplanar resonator technique. Anomalous decrease in the surface impedance Z s =R s +jX s as a function of increasing microwave magnetic field H r f was found for both the samples. In one of the films anomalous behavior is only seen in R s (H r f ) and only at low temperatures T≤15 K, whereas in the other one only X s (H r f ) exhibits anomalies and mostly at intermediate T (40-45 K). Impedance plane analysis in terms of T, frequency f, and H r f dependences of the r parameter revealed that the anomalous behavior is most certainly governed by dynamics of quasiparticles, rather than vortices. At higher H r f (≥10 kA/m), however, a noticeable deviation from the quasiparticle scaling towards the vortex motion mechanisms was found. This indicates that in high microwave fields the anomalous affects in Z s (H r f ) may be masked by or interfered with the vortex dynamics. Also some evidence is presented that the origin of the anomalies in Z s (H r f ) is seemingly related to the oxygen content of the films.
