  2. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

    A microwave oven or simply microwave is an electric oven that heats and cooks food by exposing it to electromagnetic radiation in the microwave frequency range. [1] This induces polar molecules in the food to rotate and produce thermal energy (heat) in a process known as dielectric heating .

  3. Optical downconverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_downconverter

    In a common ODC application, light from a tunable infrared laser is combined with light from a fixed frequency visible laser to produce a microwave created by a wave mixing process. The ODC use milimeteric microwave cavity that include photonic crystal that provide by two signal frequency light source. The microwave is detected by the cavity ...

  4. Microwave chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_chemistry

    Microwave volumetric heating (MVH) overcomes the uneven absorption by applying an intense, uniform microwave field. Different compounds convert microwave radiation to heat by different amounts. This selectivity allows some parts of the object being heated to heat more quickly or more slowly than others (particularly the reaction vessel).

  5. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

    Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves but longer than infrared waves. Its wavelength ranges from about one meter to one millimeter, corresponding to frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz, broadly construed.

  6. Terahertz radiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terahertz_radiation

    Terahertz waves lie mostly at the far end of the infrared band, the longest ones in the microwave band. Terahertz radiation – also known as submillimeter radiation, terahertz waves, tremendously high frequency [1] (THF), T-rays, T-waves, T-light, T-lux or THz – consists of electromagnetic waves within the International Telecommunication Union-designated band of frequencies from 0.1 to 10 ...

  7. Peak envelope power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_envelope_power

    Representation of the peak envelope power (PEP) using the example of an AM-modulated signal. The PEP is the power area shown in red. Peak envelope power (PEP) is the average power over a single radio frequency cycle at the crest of the modulation.

  8. Audio power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_power

    Audio power is the electrical power transferred from an audio amplifier to a loudspeaker, measured in watts.The electrical power delivered to the loudspeaker, together with its efficiency, determines the sound power generated (with the rest of the electrical power being converted to heat).

  9. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    Utility frequency conversion - if a user in (say) a 50 Hz country needs a 60 Hz supply to power equipment that is frequency-specific, such as a small motor or some electronics, it is possible to convert the frequency by running an inverter with a 60 Hz output from a DC source such as a 12V power supply running from the 50 Hz mains.
