    Annotation Niobium films with a thickness of 4—100 nm are synthesized on a silicon substrate under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. Measurements of the electrical resistance show a high superconducting transition temperature Tc in the range of 4.7—9.1 К and record-breaking small transition widths ATC in the range of 260— 11 mK. The dependences of Tc and ATC on the magnetic field are investigated, and the superconducting coherence lengths and mean free paths of conduction electrons for different thicknesses of the synthesized films are determined. A significant influence of the magnetic field on ATC is found, which reveals the transition from three- to two-dimensional superconductivity at thicknesses below 10 nm. The dependences of Tc and t?Tc on the thickness of the films and the magnitude of the magnetic field are discussed within the framework of existing theories of superconductivity in thin films of superconducting metals.
