In the microwave ion beam experiments described in this section, it is important to identify the microwave mode corresponding to the resonance line studied in a magnetic field. For a TM mode the microwave electric field along the central axis of the waveguide is parallel to the static magnetic field. We then put p = 0 in equation (10.161) so that the Zeeman components obey the selection rule AMj = 0. Alternatively in a TE mode the microwave electric field is perpendicular to the static magnetic field and the selection rule is A Mj = 1. This is the case for the Zeeman pattern shown in figure 10.73 each J = 3/2 level splits into four Mj components and the six allowed transitions should,... 

A powerful atmospheric-pressure-thermal microwave discharge in a resonator has been developed by Kapitsa (1969). A schematic of the resonator with standing microwave mode oi is shown in Fig. 4-66 (microwave power 175 kW, frequency 1.6 GHz). Plasma formed in the resonator looks like a filament located along the axis of the resonator cylinder. The length of the plasma filament is about 10 cm, which corresponds to half of the wavelength the diameter of the plasma filament is about 1 cm. The plasma temperature in the microwave discharge does not exceed 8000 K due to intensive reflection at higher conductivities.

The second diagnostic study made use of the Zeeman effect, observed when a small magnetic field was applied parallel to the ion beam direction. For almost every line in the spectrum a Zeeman splitting could be observed figure 10.73 illustrates a particularly simple example, where the six-line Zeeman pattern shows conclusively that the resonance must arise from a J = 3/2 3/2 transition. Effective g factors are obtained for both levels, providing valuable additional information which we shall discuss in detail later. It is important to know the microwave mode involved in a particular resonance because this determines the nature of the Zeeman components. The transitions are electric-dipole allowed, and if the Zeeman field is parallel to the... 

In VFM systems the microwaves are swept over a range of frequencies. The range is determined by the average frequency and the cavity size. The power distribution becomes more uniform because of the superposition of individual microwave modes within a few milliseconds (Figure 2.4) [19,27].

Waveguides are coimnonly used to transmit microwaves from the source to the resonator and subsequently to the receiver. For not-too-high-frequency radiation (<10 GHz) low-loss MW transmission can also be achieved usmg strip-lines and coaxial cables. At the output of a klystron an isolator is often used to prevent back-reflected microwaves to perturb the on-resonant klystron mode. An isolator is a microwave-ferrite device that pemiits the transmission of microwaves in one direction and strongly attenuates their propagation in the other direction. The prmciple of this device involves the Faraday effect, that is, the rotation of the polarization... 

It is also possible to measure microwave spectra of some more strongly bound Van der Waals complexes in a gas cell ratlier tlian a molecular beam. Indeed, tire first microwave studies on molecular clusters were of this type, on carboxylic acid dimers [jd]. The resolution tliat can be achieved is not as high as in a molecular beam, but bulk gas studies have tire advantage tliat vibrational satellites, due to pure rotational transitions in complexes witli intennolecular bending and stretching modes excited, can often be identified. The frequencies of tire vibrational satellites contain infonnation on how the vibrationally averaged stmcture changes in tire excited states, while their intensities allow tire vibrational frequencies to be estimated. 

Microwave studies also provide Important Information regarding molecular force fields, particularly with reference to low frequency vibrational modes in cyclic structures (74PMH(6)53). 

Microwave Hall experiments have been performed in our laboratory.16 They have shown that the mobility of charge carriers in semiconductors can be measured quite reliably even if the semiconductors are only available in the form of a powder. The measurement technique itself is relatively complicated and involves, for example, rectangular waveguides, which can be rotated against each other on opposite sides of the sample to monitor the phase rotation. In the two-mode resonator, two modes of...
