  2. Microwave cavity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_cavity

    A microwave cavity or radio frequency cavity (RF cavity) is a special type of resonator, consisting of a closed (or largely closed) metal structure that confines electromagnetic fields in the microwave or RF region of the spectrum. The structure is either hollow or filled with dielectric material. The microwaves bounce back and forth between ...

  3. Microwave oven - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_oven

    Globally. 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 vibrate [2] and produce thermal energy in a process known as dielectric heating. Microwave ovens heat foods quickly and ...

  4. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave

    Microwave. A telecommunications tower with a variety of dish antennas for microwave relay links on Frazier Peak, Ventura County, California. The apertures of the dishes are covered by plastic sheets (radomes) to keep out moisture. Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves (as originally ...

  5. Electromagnetic absorption by water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_absorption...

    The absorption of electromagnetic radiation by water depends on the state of the water. The absorption in the gas phase occurs in three regions of the spectrum. Rotational transitions are responsible for absorption in the microwave and far-infrared, vibrational transitions in the mid-infrared and near-infrared.

  6. Frequency selective surface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_selective_surface

    v. t. e. A frequency-selective surface (FSS) is any thin, repetitive surface (such as the screen on a microwave oven) designed to reflect, transmit or absorb electromagnetic fields based on the frequency of the field. In this sense, an FSS is a type of optical filter or metal-mesh optical filters in which the filtering is accomplished by virtue ...

  7. Cavity perturbation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_perturbation_theory

    There are many industrial applications for cavity resonators, including microwave ovens, microwave communication systems, and remote imaging systems using electro magnetic waves. How a resonant cavity performs can affect the amount of energy that is required to make it resonate, or the relative stability or instability of the system.

  8. Klystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klystron

    The gyroklystron is a microwave amplifier with operation dependent on the cyclotron resonance condition. [13] Similarly to the klystron, its operation depends on the modulation of the electron beam, but instead of axial bunching the modulation forces alter the cyclotron frequency and hence the azimuthal component of motion, resulting in phase ...

  9. Coupling coefficient of resonators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_coefficient_of...

    The coupling coefficient of resonators is a dimensionless value that characterizes interaction of two resonators. Coupling coefficients are used in resonator filter theory. Resonators may be both electromagnetic and acoustic. Coupling coefficients together with resonant frequencies and external quality factors of resonators are the generalized ...
