Apparatus for application of evanescent waves to biological tissues

An apparatus for an application of a plurality of evanescent waves to at least one biological tissue comprising;

• a plurality of RF voltage sources each of which is generating an RF signal having a frequency of 50 kHz to 50 MHz at an output;
• each of the plurality of RF voltage sources with the ability to shift phase from 0 to 360 degrees;
• an electrically conducting wire(s) or RF cable(s) coupled to the output of each of the plurality of RF voltage sources;
• a plurality of planar conductive regions configured at a voltage differential within a local region in a vicinity of a spatial volume and the configuration of the plurality of planar conductive regions being spatially separated by a non-conductive gap that generates the plurality of evanescent waves within the spatial volume and the configuration reduces a formation of one or more travelling waves within the spatial volume such that a ratio of evanescent waves to travelling waves is more than ten to one and less than ten thousand to one, each of the plurality of planar conductive regions comprising an overlying insulating material of a low dielectric constant material, the low dielectric material having a dielectric constant ranging from 1 to 10;
• and
• an electric field distribution caused from the configuration of the plurality of planar conductive regions and characterizing the spatial volume, such that the spatial volume that is spatially positioned within a vicinity of a biological tissue provides a higher strength electric field than a region outside of the spatial volume such that the higher strength electric field ranges from 10 times to 105 times of a lower strength electric field in the region outside of the spatial volume.
