| Research Abstract |
As for the influence of the temperature on the generation characteristics of nano-bubbles, the amount of generating nano-bubbles was increased according to the lowering of the temperature. This would be due to the increased gas saturation capacity to the liquid for the lower temperature. At the lower temperature, the total amount of the saturated gas would be increased and thus the released gas amount would be increased to make the larger number of nano-bubbles.
As for the cleaning effect of nano-bubbles, the liquid circulating experimental apparatus was manufactured and nano-bubbles were generated by applying the ultrasonic waves to the liquid. For the contaminated plate, the minute particle contamination on the plate was selected as the typical example of the actual technical needs to the semiconductor industries. The application of supplying nano-bubbles was realized by contained in the liquid water flow with the velocity of several meters per second.
The following conclusion were obtained from the experimental results.
(1)As the generation of nano-bubbles, about 8000 nano-bubbles with the diameter between 500nm and 1000nm were able to be generated for 10ml by applying ultrasonic waves of 850kHz to the ultra-clean liquid water.
(2)By applying nano-bubbles with the stagnation flow of ultra-clean liquid water to the contaminated plate which was contaminated by the nearly 50nm alumina fine particles, cleaning effects was actually realized by the amount of 99% for the volume ratio, and 92% for the area ratio. Otherwise, by applying only the ultra-clean liquid water or the liquid water containing micrometer scale bubbles no significant cleaning effects was observed.
