High temperature dielectric constants of the various ceramic materials have been measured using cavity perturbation method. The measurements were applied to refractory, traditional and fine ceramic powder compacts from room temperature to $1200^{\circ}C$. Calibration constant in the equation suggested by Hutcheon et al., was determined from the dielectric constants of reference specimen (teflon and alumina) at room temperature. From these results, informations on the refectory materials were obtained for the microwave kiln design and understanding of the microwave heating effects of ceramics have been improved.

본 논문에서는 집속이온빔의 플라즈마원을 위한 간단한 직육면체형태의 공진 공동을 설계하고 특성연구를 수행하였다. 공진에 최적인 공동 구조는 HFSS(High Frequency Structure Simulator)를 이용한 전기장 분포를 통해 구체적으로 계산하였다. 공진 공동은 내부 석영관 및 플라즈마 등의 유전체의 영향을 받기 때문에 공동의 한축 길이를 변화시킬 수 있는 구조로 설계되었다. 실험적으로 관찰되는 마이크로웨이브 방전시작전압을 통해 방전에 최적인 공동 길이를 측정하여 HFSS 계산된 값과 비교하였다. 공동은 석영관으로 인한 내부 유효유전율의 변화에 의해 석영관을 고려하지 않았던 길이에 비해 10cm가 감소된 길이에서 최적화됨을 공통적으로 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 압력변화에 따른 방전시작전압은 Paschen Curve와 유사한 결과를 나타내었다. 방전이 발생한 후에는 입력전력에 따라 플라즈마 밀도가 증가하였고 플라즈마의 영향으로 감소한 유효유전율에 의해 10cm가 증가한 길이에서 최적화가 되었다. 하지만 300W이상의 높은 입력 전력에서는 마이크로웨이브가 투과할 수 없는 고밀도 플라즈마 경계층(cut off layer)이 확장하여 더 이상 공동길이 조절을 통한 공동 최적화가 불가능함을 확인하였다. 따라서 고밀도 플라즈마를 만들기 위한 마이크로웨이브 공동의 정확한 설계를 위해 마이크로웨이브가 통과할 수 없는 고밀도 플라즈마 영역을 도체로 가정하고 그 외의 저밀도 플라즈마 영역을 밀도에 고유한 특정 유전율을 가지는 유전체로 설정하여 공동 내부의 전기장 분포를 해석하는 과정이 꼭 필요하다.

마이크로파 유전체의 Q 값 측정에 널리 사용되고 있는 유전체 공진기 방법에서 캐비티의 재질변화가 유전체의 Q 값 측정에 미치는 오차요인에 대해 HFSS 시뮬레이션과 실측평가를 병행하여 조사하였다. HFSS의 전자계 벡터 형상으로부터 $TE_{01\delta}$ 모드의 공진주파수를 결정하고 $S_{21}$ 파라메터의 3dB 대역폭으로부터 Q 값을 계산하였다. 캐비티 금속이 Cu, SUS, Au 등으로 변화할 경우 유전체 공진기의 Q 값 측정에 큰 오차는 발생하지 않았으나, 금속이 산화하여 전도도가 수 천 정도로 떨어질 경우 Q 값이 매우 낮게 측정되는 오차가 발생함을 확인하였다. 이러한 시뮬레이션 결과는 실제로 다양한 재질의 금속 캐비티를 가지고 유전체 공진기의 Q 값을 측정해 본 결과 서로 일치되는 관련성을 나타내었다.

Hyperthermia is a form of cancer treatment in which affected human tissue is exposed to $>40^{\circ}C$ temperature. In this paper, our goal is to assess the efficacy of fullerene agents to reduce heating time for cancer treatment. Such agents can accelerate heating of cancer cells and improve hyperthermia treatment efficacy. Typically, in vitro testing involves cancer cell culturing, heating cell cultures in accordance to specifications, and recording cancer cell viability after hyperthermia. To heat cell cultures, we design and evaluate a 2.4-GHz microwave cavity with controllable temperature. The cavity is comprised of a polystyrene cell culture dish (diameter = 54 mm, height = 13.5 mm) and a printed monopole antenna placed within the cavity for microwave heating. The culture temperature can be controlled through the intensity and duration of the antenna's microwave radiation. Heating experiments were carried out to validate the cavity's performance for F-12K culture medium (Kaighn's F-12K medium, ATCC). Importantly, fullerene agents were shown to reduce heating time and improve hyperthermia treatment efficacy. The culture medium temperature increased, on average, from $24.0^{\circ}C$ to $50.9^{\circ}C$ (without fullerene) and from $24.0^{\circ}C$ to $56.8^{\circ}C$ (with 3 mg/mL fullerene) within 15 minutes.

Background: We are developing L-band and S-band microwave dielectric absorption systems aiming novel dosimetry using DNAs, such as plasmid DNA and genomic DNA, and microwave technology. Materials and Methods: Each system is composed of a cavity resonator, analog signal generator, circulator, power meter, and oscilloscope. Since the cavity resonator is sensitive to temperature change, we have made great efforts to prevent the fluctuation of temperature. We have developed software for controlling and measurement. Results and Discussion: By using this system, we can measure the resonance frequency, f, and ${\Delta}Q$ (Q is a dimensionless parameter that describes how under-damped an oscillator or resonator is, and characterizes a resonator's bandwidth relative to its center frequency) within about 3 minutes with high accuracy. Conclusion: This system will be expected to be applicable to DNAs evaluations and to novel dosimetric system.

A prototype for a highly sensitive, automated measurement system for the microwave surface resistance of high-T$_c$ superconductor films was set up, and tested by measuring the microwave surface resistances of high-T$_c$ YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-{\delta}}$(YBCO) films at the frequency of about 19.6 GHz and the temperature of 30 K ${\sim}$ 90 K. An open-ended TE$_{011}$ mode sapphire-loaded cylindrical cavity resonator was used as the measurement probe, where YBCO films were used as the endplates of the cylindrical cavity. The characteristics of the measurement system include functions to display the unloaded ${\varrho}$ and the resonant frequency of the TE$_{011}$ mode resonator as well as the microwave surface resistance of the YBCO films, all simultaneously as a function of temperature. Applicability of the measurement system for investigating the homogeneity in the microwave properties of large high-T$_c$ superconductor films is discussed.

With the advancement of industry, the use of various sustainable energy sources and solutions to problems affecting the environment are being actively requested. From this point of view, it is intended to directly burn unused biogas to use it as energy and to solve environmental problems such as greenhouse gases. In this study, a new type of cavity matrix combustor capable of low-emission complete combustion without complex facilities such as separation or purification of biogas produced in small and medium-sized facilities was proposed, and CFD numerical calculation was performed to understand the performance characteristics of this combustor. The cavity matrix combustor consists of a burner with a rectangular porous microwave receptor at the center inside a 3D cavity that maintains a rectangular parallelepiped shape composed of a porous plate that can store heat in the combustor chamber. As a result of numerical calculation, the biogas supplied to the inlet of the combustor is converted to CO and H₂, which are intermediate products, on the surface of the 3D matrix porous burner. And then the optimal combustion process was achieved through complete combustion into CO₂ and H₂O due to increased combustibility by receiving heat energy from the microwave heating receptor.
