A cylindrical microwave resonant cavity can be considered to be N LCR circuits arranged in parallel, where N tends to infinity. The cavity is constructed by A/4 sections of such circuits as described in the Air Force manual Radar Circuit Analysis (1950).

The analysis system consisted of a Shimsdzu QC-6A gas chromatograph, a chemically deactivated four-way valve for solvent ventilation, a heated transfer tube interface, a Beenakker-type TM0i0 microwave resonance cavity, and an Ebert-type monochromator (0.5m focal length). 

The instrumental aspects of EPR have been summarized elsewhere, " although the text by Poole is especially noted for instrumental details and parameters. Obviously, to perform ENDOR experiments, one must have an EPR spectrometer, of which Bruker Biospin is the sole viable vendor at present (http //www.bruker-biospm.com/brukerepr/index.html accessed 03/01/2007). ENDOR accessories include the rf synthesizer and amplifiers and a microwave resonant cavity that includes rf cods in addition to the normal structure with field modulation coils. Locally constructed ENDOR spectrometers were more common in the past, with that of the late Clyde A. Hutchison Jr being a notable example, particularly for single-crystal studies. Such spectrometers still exist the author is familiar with those at Northwestern University. ... 

The microwave resonant cavity, first applied to flames by Sugden and Thrush, offered few advantages over the direct measurement of attenuation. Since the theoretical equation for power loss was not soluble in real conditions, the apparatus had to be calibrated with known electron concentrations. The development of the loop coupled Eoio cavity by Horsfield and Pennycook and its application to the kinetics of flame ionization by Sugden, Padley and Jensen, - changed the situation. This cavity is not quantized in the vertical dimension, and can therefore be used to study narrow sections of flame resolutions as high as 2 mm have been achieved. It was still necessary to calibrate the apparatus, usually with caesimn assuming complete ionization, but the kinetics of alkali metal ionization could be followed successfully.

The cylindrical resonant cavity which operates in the TE0n mode is another very useful design. The Hi and Ei field lines of force for this cavity are shown in Fig. 9. One commercially available cavity of this type has a bottom which can be screwed in and out, thus changing the resonant microwave frequency over a limited range. 

When microwaves travel along a waveguide terminated by the microwave heating application (for example a resonant cavity loaded by the object to be heated) a reflected wave travels back towards the source. The wave traveling towards the termination is called the incident wave and the wave traveling back to the magnetron is...

A standing wave (SW) microwave linear accelerator consists of a linear array of resonant cavities that are energized by a common source of microwave power. These cavities are nearly isolated by webs with small-diameter apertures, and the high-energy electron beam passes through these apertures. However, they are coupled through intermediate cavities, which stabilize the microwave phase relationship between the accelerating cavities. 

Resonant cavity accelerators consist of several resonant cavities in series energized by a single S-band klystron using a microwave power distribution system.51 Another type consists of a single VHF cavity energized by a triode tube that is less expensive than klystron. The resonant frequency of the latter is about 110 MHz, which is well... 

Collision-induced microwave spectra. Measurements of the dielectric loss by resonant cavity techniques at 9 and 24 GHz were first reported by Birnbaum and Maryott [33], The cavity was at room temperature and filled with carbon dioxide gas at densities up to 100 amagat. The loss, which at not too low frequencies increases as the square of density,... 

The setup for ESR spectroscopy is a cross between NMR and micro-wave techniques (Section 5.8). The source is a frequency-stabilized klystron, whose frequency is measured as in microwave spectroscopy. The microwave radiation is transmitted down a waveguide to a resonant cavity (a hollow metal enclosure), which contains the sample. The cavity is between the poles of an electromagnet, whose field is varied until resonance is achieved. Absorption of microwave power at resonance is observed using the same kind of crystal detector as in microwave spectroscopy. Sensitivity is enhanced, as in microwave spectroscopy, by the use of modulation The magnetic field applied to the sample is modulated at, say, 100 kHz, thus producing a 100-kHz signal at the crystal when an absorption is reached. The spectrum is recorded on chart paper. 

The principles involved in measurements at frequencies above 300MHz are covered in IEC 60377-151 and measurements using resonant cavity procedures described in IEC 60377-252. Similar resonant cavity procedures for microwave frequencies are given in ASTM D252053.
