Abstract
A microwave device for inactivation of viruses is disclosed. The microwave device comprising a housing and a field generator. The housing has a cavity configured to receive an object contaminated with viruses within the cavity and the field generator is configured to irradiate the cavity with microwave energy at a band of frequencies and a power level configured to inactivate the virus. The cavity is located within a near-field of a radiation pattern produced by the field generator at the band of frequencies and the microwave energy causes a dipole vibration on the virus that causes the virus to fracture.
