contents We report on magnetron deposition of thin superconducting rhenium films on sapphire substrates. During the deposition, substrates were held at ambient temperature. Critical temperature of the films is Tc~3.6 K. Films have polycrystalline structure, and grazing incidence X-ray diffractometry indicates that crystalline lattice parameters are somewhat larger compared to the bulk ones. Magnetoresistive and AC/DC susceptibilities allowed us to determine $H_{c1}$ and $H_{c2}$ of these films, as well as estimate coherence length $ξ$(0) and magnetic penetration depth $λ_L$(0). We also provide information on surface morphology of these films.
