Fig. 3. (Color online) Microwave near-field distribution of normal and partially filled quail eggs according to the microwave electric field direction. The applied microwave frequency and power were 11 GHz and 30 dBm, respectively. Red arrows indicate direction of microwave electric field. (a–b) Measured microwave near-field distribution when excited by microwaves with a horizontal electric field direction: (a) normal eggs; (b) partially filled eggs. (c–d) Measured microwave near-field distributions when excited by microwaves with a vertical electric field direction: (c) normal eggs; (d) partially filled eggs.
