摘要： A plate of substantially uniform thickness is formed from an electrically conductive material. The plate has a top surface defined to support a part to be measured. The plate has a bottom surface defined to be connected to a radiofrequency (RF) transmission rod such that RF power can be transmitted through the RF transmission rod to the plate. The plate is defined to have a number of holes cut vertically through the plate at a corresponding number of locations that underlie embedded conductive material items in the part to be measured when the part is positioned on the top surface of the plate.

摘要： A chamber formed from an electrically conductive material is connected to a ground potential. A hot electrode formed from an electrically conductive material is disposed within the chamber in a substantially horizontal orientation and is physically separated from the chamber. The hot electrode includes a top surface defined to support a part to be measured. A radiofrequency (RF) transmission rod is connected to extend from a bottom surface of the hot electrode through an opening in a bottom of the chamber and be physically separated from the chamber. The RF transmission rod is defined to transmit RF power from a conductor plate in an electrical components housing to the hot electrode. An upper electrode formed from an electrically conductive material is disposed within the chamber in a substantially horizontal orientation. The upper electrode is electrically connected to the chamber and is defined to be movable in a vertical direction.
