As indicated in the Microwave History page, in 1945, Waltham, MA, in the Raytheon Company radar laboratory, a vice president named Percy Spencer discovered the microwave oven. His patent, filed in October 1945 and granted in 1950, (U.S. patent 2,495,429) can be paraphrased as: a method of treating food by application of microwave energy, wherein the food is exposed to microwave energy within a restricted region of space and for sufficient time to cook the food to a predetermined degree. Percy Spencer's chance encounter with microwaves certainly was a significant step in modern cooking. But it was more than a single person who moved this field along and continued sustaining and nurturing it. Many innovative individuals and companies have continually improved microwave ovens, foods and packaging. Links to many exciting, innovative companies that use microwave technology are listed.
