6. The infrared and far-infrared waves radiate inside the ceramic by
microwave heating of the magnetic ceramic
When we heat the magnetic materials by microwaves, the temperature of the magnetic
materials rises and infrared and far-infrared waves emit. At the same time, spins of
magnetic materials are transited by not equilibrium state of thermodynamics and
the wavelength of microwaves is transformed to infrared and far-infrared waves with a
wavelength 2.3μm~20μm and it emits beyond the intensity of ideal black body
radiation.The emission energy is shown in the following equation (4)

8. Microwave heating of Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite
We add 10% Ca in Mn-Zn ferrite and make Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite.
We sinter the Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite inside the ceramic and heat it in a
microwave oven. The electric dipole momentum of Ca is transited and
spins of Ca atoms by the magnetic field of Mn-Zn ferrite are transited.
Mn-Zn-Ca magnetic ceramic emits infrared and far-infrared waves with
a wavelength of 8 μm to 50μm, extending to 100μm so called
Terahertz region.
9. When we irradiate microwaves to the Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite, the electric dipole
of Ca is transited. The emission by transition is shown in equation (5).

10. The power of emission of the magnetic ceramic with a wavelength of 8μm to
100μm by electric dipole and magnetic dipole transition is calculated
from equation (5) and (6) and it is shown in the figure below. The power of
emission with wavelength range 8μm to 100μm is amplified beyond the range of
ideal black body radiation.
11. The absorption wavelengths of Calcium or Calcium Apatites were shown by B.O. Fowler in the
National Institute of Dental Research in U.S. in 1973. We show his data in Figure. From this data,
the absorption wavelength of Ca is between 8μm and 50μm or 100μm, Terahertz region.

heat quarts glasses of 100cc of water which contain different Ca concentrations and pure water
using these ceramics in the microwave oven and we measure their temperature rise and ion

15. The conclusions of the experiments
The high concentration Ca waters show
the highest microwave heating effects
while using Mn-Zn-Ca (Ca10%) ferrite and
the high concentration Ca waters also
show higher heating effects while using
Mn-Zn ferrite. The higher ion values show
higher heating effects. The infrared
emission wavelength from Mn-Zn-Ca
ferrite coincides with the Ca absorption
wavelength between 8μm and 50μm or
100μm and synchronizes with this.
16. The infrared and far-infrared absorption
wavelength of amino acids is 40μm to 100μm
17. The facility of amino acids, peptide and protein synthesis which uses
Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite ceramic
18. Conclusions
We sinter Mn-Zn ferrite inside the ceramic totally. When we heat this
ceramic in a microwave oven, infrared and far-infrared waves with a
wavelength of 2μm to 20μm radiate inside the ceramic beyond
the intensity of blackbody radiation.
We sinter Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite inside the ceramic totally. When we
heat this ceramic inside the microwave oven, far-infrared waves with a

Intensity of blackbody radiation.
When we use the ceramic in which Mn-Zn-Ca ferrite is sintered, we can
synthesize amino acids, peptide and protein which have an absorption
wavelength in the far-infrared region.
