No.. You've misread the information. MHz = A million cycles per second.
1MHz means 1,000,000 times or 500nS period to go from +Vpp to -Vpp

0.1MHz = 100KHz. Even most audio oscillators circuits will run as high as 100KHz to 1MHz with a few minor changes in components.

Has that come from one of those silly patents that has no possibility of working in real life?

I wonder if the field from 1.5 volts at 1 milliHz is going to have ANY significant effect on the plasma inside a "220v 60Hz" driven fluoro tube where the plasma cycles quite violently at 60Hz...

Just because it has a diagram and a bunch of mathematic looking gobboldy gook attached to it doesn't make it real science.

That circuit wont do a thing to the electric plasma arc inside the tube. If you want to deflect or constrict it you need a magnetic field of fairly high power not a very weak static electric field.

Wrap a bunch of fine enameled wire around the tube and put a strong DC current through it.

It has been published on several different peer-reviewed journals, so I don't understand why it was (or why it does not work).
