title: A system for controlled microwave heating of small samples.
abstract: A system for the controlled thawing and heating of small samples in a waveguide is described. A means of maintaining constant absorbed power within the sample over a wide range of sample parameters is a major feature of the system. Provision for sensing the melting point of immersed samples is include. Samples are continuously rotated to improve heating uniformity.
