The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a device in which a microwave-blocking container is provided inside a vacuum container, and which makes it possible to more easily and more definitively block microwaves. A device according to the present disclosure is equipped with a housing, a vacuum container provided inside the housing, and a microwave-blocking container which accommodates an object to be treated and is provided inside the vacuum container, and is characterized in that the microwave-blocking container has a microwave radiation part and an opening which blocks microwaves and allows a gas inside the microwave-blocking container to flow into the vacuum container.

An apparatus for providing a connector for a microwave filter port is disclosed. According to one aspect, a subassembly includes a connector having a connector pin, a connector seat having a pass through conduit with a first opening for receiving the connector with the connector pin and a second opening at an opposite end of the pass through conduit, the connector pin protruding from the second opening when the connector is mounted to the connector seat. The subassembly further includes a coupling conductor soldered to the connector pin, where the coupling conductor is configured to be soldered to the connector pin before insertion of the subassembly into a channel of the microwave filter port.

An electronic device may include a dielectric substrate, an electronic circuit supported by the substrate, for processing data, and a communication unit having an antenna. The communication unit may be mounted to the substrate in communication with the electronic circuit for converting between a first EHF electromagnetic signal containing digital information and a data signal conducted by the electronic circuit. The electromagnetic signal may be transmitted or received along a signal path by the antenna. An electromagnetic signal guide assembly may include a dielectric element made of a dielectric material disposed proximate the antenna in the signal path. The electromagnetic signal guide may have sides extending along the signal path. A sleeve element may extend around the dielectric element along sides of the dielectric element. The sleeve element may impede transmission of the electromagnetic signal through the sides of the dielectric element.
