Abstract:Microwave heating has a wide range of applications in the fields of industrial heating and drying. However, when microwave heating is applied to the thin film, it will be challenging due to its low loss and large heat dissipation area. In this paper, a double-ridged waveguide for thin-film heating is proposed. The double ridge structure is employed to enhance the electric field, thereby increasing the power-loss density in the thin film. Firstly, a double-ridged waveguide, in which the electric field strength … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
