Microwave Plasma Processing and Heating

Microwaves are radio or electromagnetic waves in the frequency band from 300 Mhz to 300 GHz. Typically, most applications fall within 40 GHz, and electro heating applications use a limited frequency band, the so called Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) radio bands, reserved intentionally for uses other than communications: among these the most common frequencies are 915 MHz 2.45 GHz and 5.80 GHz.
