Crude Aconiti Tubers were irradiated with microwave for 5 or 10 min with or without $NaHCO_3$. Ten min-irradiation reduced the contents of aconitine and mesaconitine to the level of those of commercially available processed Aconiti tuber power which is prepared with the high pressure-high temperature technique. The contents of benzoylaconine of the 10 min-irradiated Aconiti tubers were also comparable to those of commerciallized processed Aconiti tuber powder. However, irradiation with 1% $NaHCO_3$ soln. resulted in the drastic reduction of all the three above alkaloids.

$Mg_4Nb_2O_9$ (MN) ceramics have been prepared by a sol-gel method. The powder characteristics, phase evolution, and microwave dielectric properties of the MN were investigated in various processing conditions such as sol-gel compositions, calcination, and sintering temperatures. A Qxfo value of 111,717 GHz with a ${\varepsilon}_r$ of 10.59 and a ${\tau}_f$ of $+1.736\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ was obtained after sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 5 h.

A 2.45GHz microwave plasma source with a linear antenna has been developed for low temperature large scale deposition processing. Microwave power is transmitted through WR340 waveguide and a copper rod, linear antenna, is located in a quartz tube. The power matching is effectively achieved by a linear antenna is located at ${\lambda}_g/4$ or $3{\lambda}_g/4$ from the end of WR340 waveguide. The Ar plasma was generated along the surface of quartz tube and a clear standing wave pattern with nearly 10cm wavelength was observed at Ar pressure of 200mTorr and 200W input power. The electron density and electron temperature were investigated by using the electrostatic probe. The electron density and electron temperature were highly measured near the surface of quartz tube. Ar plasma density along the quartz tube is mostly uniform despite standing wave set-up and antenna of long length. A uniform temperature was measured at 10~40cm distance from the end quartz tube and 5cm distance from the surface of quartz tube.

The microwave dielectric properties and the microstructures of $Tm_2O_3$-modified $BiNbO_4$ ceramics were investigated. $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics combined with orthorhombic and triclinic phases were identified at sintering temperatures of $920{\sim}960^{\circ}C$. The apparent density decreased slightly with the increasing Tm content. Regardless of the Tm content the dielectric constant $(\varepsilon_r)$ of all compositions except x=0.1 in $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics saturated at the range of 42~44. The $Q{\times}f_0$ values of 6,000-12,000(GHz) were obtained for all compositions when the sintering temperatures were in the range of $920{\sim}960^{\circ}C$. The temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency$(\tau_f)$ can be also adjusted with increasing the amount of the doped Tm from a positive value of $+15ppm/^{\circ}C$ to a negative value of $-20ppm/^{\circ}C$. The $Bi_{(1-x)}Tm_xNbO_4$ ceramics can be possibly applied to multilayer microwave devices with low processing temperatures.

In a companion paper, we have presented so-called Spatio-Spectral Maximum Entropy Method (SSMEM) particularly designed for Fourier-Transform imaging over a wide spectral range. The SSMEM allows simultaneous acquisition of both spectral and spatial information and we consider it most suitable for imaging spectroscopy of solar microwave emission. In this paper, we run the SSMEM for a realistic model of solar microwave radiation and a model array resembling the Owens Valley Solar Array in order to identify and resolve possible issues in the application of the SSMEM to solar microwave imaging spectroscopy. We mainly concern ourselves with issues as to how the frequency dependent noise in the data and frequency-dependent variations of source size and background flux will affect the result of imaging spectroscopy under the SSMEM. We also test the capability of the SSMEM against other conventional techniques, CLEAN and MEM.

We studied the effect of composition, processing, and sintering temperature on the microwave properties of $Mg_{3-x}Co_x(VO_4)_2$ system which is applicable to LTCC. When $Mg_{3-x}Co_x(VO_4)_2$ was fabricated by solid-state reaction process and sintered at the temperature range of $800\sim910^{\circ}C$, it was found that the optimum composition of x was 2 at which microwave properties of 910$^{\circ}C$-sintered one were as follows: $Q\times f_0\sim55,200GHz$ and $\varepsilon_r\sim10$. When $(MgCo_2)(VO_4)_2$ was fabricated by sol-gel process and sintered at 800$^{\circ}C$, $Q\timesf_0$was 34,400GHz which is much high compared to those fabricated by solid-state reaction process at the same sintering temperature.

A study to replace a high temperature thermal carbonization process with microwave plasma process is carried for PAN fiber as a starting material. Near atmospheric pressure microwave plasma (1 Torr~45 Torr) was used to control to get the fiber temperature up to $1,000^{\circ}C$. Even argon is an inert gas, its plasma state include high internal energy particles; ion (15.76 eV) and metastable (11.52 eV). They are very effective to lower the necessary thermal temperature for carbonization of PAN fiber and the resultant thermal budget. The carbonization process was confirmed by both EDS (energy dispersive spectroscopy) of plasma treated fibers and OES (optical emission spectroscopy) during processing step as a real time monitoring tool. The same trend of decreasing oxygen content was observed in both diagnostic methods.

We studied the effect of sol-gel processing and sintering temperature on the microwave properties of $MgCo_2(VO_4)_2$ system(MCV) which is applicable to LTCC(low-temperature cofired ceramics). The MCV was synthesized by sol-gel process using solution that contains precursor molecules for Mg, Co, and V. SEM analysis shows that the average particle size is ${\sim}1{\mu}m$ and size distribution is very uniform compared to the one prepared by conventional solid-state reaction process. Highly dense samples were obtained at the sintering temperature range of $750^{\circ}C{\sim}930^{\circ}C$. The maximum $Q{\times}f_0$ value of 55,700GHz, dielectric constant(${\varepsilon}_r$) of 10.41 and temperature coefficient(${\tau}_f$) of $-85ppm/^{\circ}C$ was obtained at the sintering temperature of $930^{\circ}C$. The superior microwave properties of sol-gel processed MCV relative to conventional solid-state reaction processed one is remarkable especially at lower sintering temperatures such as $750^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$.

Microwave-assisted process (2,450MHz), which is known as a more environmental-friendly process with economic advantages than the current extraction methods, was investigated to pre-establish the extraction conditions for soluble ginseng components used for the processing of ginseng products. The extractions of soluble ginseng components showed optimum conditions, such as 60 mesh in particle size, 1 : 10 (g/mL) in the sample to solvent ratio, and less than 100 watts in energy efficiency. Under these conditions using along with 60% ethanol for 5 min, the overall yield of ginseng extracts was about 83%. Most soluble components including saponins were extracted by repeating five times of microwave-assisted extraction.
