 ================================= Abstract - The lithium disilicate (LS2) 
 glass system provides the basis for a large number of useful glass-ceramic
  products. Microwave processing of materials such as glass-ceramics offers
  unique benefits over the used conventional processing techniques. Experim
 ental evidence of the non-thermal effects of microwave processing (“
 microwave effect”) on the crystallization process of LS2 glass will 
 be presented. The molecular orbital model for microwave absorption of mate
 rials will be used to provide a better fundamental understanding of how mi
 crowave energy interacts with LS2 glass and glass-ceramic. This model was 
 closely consistent with experiments and indicated that microwave-material 
 interactions were highly dependent on the structure of the material. Furth
 ermore\, recent microwave processing of materials activities will be brief
 ly presented. ============================================================
