  2. 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).

  3. Microwave burn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_burn

    The depth of penetration depends on the frequency of the microwaves and the tissue type. The Active Denial System ("pain ray") is a less-lethal directed energy weapon that employs a microwave beam at 95 GHz; a two-second burst of the 95 GHz focused beam heats the skin to a temperature of 130 °F (54 °C) at a depth of 1/64th of an inch (0.4 mm) and is claimed to cause skin pain without lasting ...

  4. Microwave transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_transmission

    In microwave radio relay, a microwave transmitter and directional antenna transmits a narrow beam of microwaves carrying many channels of information on a line of sight path to another relay station where it is received by a directional antenna and receiver, forming a fixed radio connection between the two points. The link was often ...

    This sound, magnified by the dish reflectors, caused vertigo and nausea at 200–400 meters (220–440 yd) by vibrating the middle ear bones and shaking the cochlear fluid within the inner ear. At distances of 50–200 meters (160–660 ft), the sound waves could act on organ tissues and fluids by repeatedly compressing and releasing ...

  6. Microwave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 to keep out moisture. Microwave is a form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than other radio waves but longer than infrared waves.

  8. Microwave imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_imaging

    Microwave imaging is a science which has been evolved from older detecting/locating techniques (e.g., radar) in order to evaluate hidden or embedded objects in a structure (or media) using electromagnetic (EM) waves in microwave regime (i.e., ~300 MHz-300 GHz). [1]

  9. Microwave spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_spectroscopy

    For insulating materials (both solid and liquid), [6] probing charge dynamics with microwaves is a part of dielectric spectroscopy.Amongst the conductive materials, superconductors are a material class that is often studied with microwave spectroscopy, giving information about penetration depth (governed by the superconducting condensate), [4] [7] energy gap (single-particle excitation of ...
