Abstract
The experimental setup proposed is a simple 2.45 GHz microwave induced acoustic system for rapid detection of contaminants within a liquid. The use of moderate power microwave radiation for longer excitation is illustrated as an alternative to high power short duration systems th at have been previously described. Results for water/alcohol mixtures are presented, illustrating a measurement resolution of better than 10 % with minimal signal processing and display requirements.
