Abstract
A method of preventing sticking of moving parts of a micro-mechanical device. A set of microwave frequencies, which will cause water molecules to resonate, is determined. From this set of frequencies, an applied frequency that will provide an efficient energy coupling from the source to the device is selected. The device is continuously irradiated with radiation of this frequency.
