Experimental evidence of a microwave non-thermal effect in electrolyte aqueous solutions
Abstract
Microwave non-thermal effects have aroused extensive attention. Some studies have affirmed that microwave non-thermal effects can never be observed below electric field intensities of 107 V m−1. In this paper, a precisely designed experiment was used to corroborate the existence of a microwave non-thermal effect in electrolyte aqueous solutions. The measurements were carried out at 2.45 GHz and the electric field magnitude was in the order of 104 V m−1. The electrical conductivity (EC) of
