  2. Microwave radiometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microwave_radiometer

    A microwave radiometer consists of an antenna system, microwave radio-frequency components (front-end) and a back-end for signal processing at intermediate frequencies. The key element is the Dicke switch, which alternately switches between the antenna and a cryogenic load at a known temperature.

  3. 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 .

  4. Dielectric heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dielectric_heating

    A microwave oven uses dielectric heating to cook food.. Dielectric heating, also known as electronic heating, radio frequency heating, and high-frequency heating, is the process in which a radio frequency (RF) alternating electric field, or radio wave or microwave electromagnetic radiation heats a dielectric material.

  5. Cavity magnetron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavity_magnetron

    The cavity magnetron is a high-power vacuum tube used in early radar systems and subsequently in microwave ovens and in linear particle accelerators. A cavity magnetron generates microwaves using the interaction of a stream of electrons with a magnetic field , while moving past a series of cavity resonators , which are small, open cavities in a ...

  6. Klystron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klystron

    The simplest klystron tube is the two-cavity klystron. In this tube there are two microwave cavity resonators, the "catcher" and the "buncher". When used as an amplifier, the weak microwave signal to be amplified is applied to the buncher cavity through a coaxial cable or waveguide, and the amplified signal is extracted from the catcher cavity.

  7. Waveguide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide

    In a microwave oven a waveguide transfers power from the magnetron, where waves are formed, to the cooking chamber. In a radar, a waveguide transfers radio frequency energy to and from the antenna, where the impedance needs to be matched for efficient power transmission (see below).
