Microwave/RF Applicators and Probes: for Material Heating, Sensing, and Plasma Generation, Third Edition presents the design rules and principles of high-frequency applicators and probes for material processing and sensing applications. After covering the basics of field-material interactions, the book reviews and categorizes probes and applicators, demonstrates real-world applications, and offers numerically solved examples. Sections bring together the overall area of high-frequency applicators and probes for material interactions as an integrated science, provide a useful reference to those who design these devices, and present an update on the most recent developments and findings.

The key design principles of various applicators and probes are often quite similar and, once understood, can be readily applied to diverse applications, thus avoiding a great deal of design trial and error.
