Double Quartz Tubes Make More Energy Efficient Industrial Plasma
by Brian Wang from NextBigFuture.com on (#6KQ73)
Japanese researchers have used a single-mode microwave generator to produce their metal plasmas. This creates more controlled and highly focused microwaves. Hot gases composed of metal ions and electrons, called plasmas, are widely used in many manufacturing processes, chemical synthesis, and metal extraction from ores and welding. A collaborative research group from Tohoku University and ...
