Description of the Invention: [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a vacuum exhausting device, a vacuum processing device, and a vacuum processing method using a refrigerating pump. [Prior Art] The cold beam pump is a type of vacuum exhaust pump that is used in vacuum processing apparatuses for film formation, surface modification, patterning, analysis, and evaporative drying. The refrigerating pump facilitates the venting of water molecules and in principle provides a clean vacuum environment. That is, the refrigerating pump is a trapping pump that accumulates the gas discharged from the vacuum processing device or the processing gas introduced into the vacuum processing device into the interior of the pump casing through the principle of low temperature = junction and low temperature adsorption. . Therefore, it is necessary to periodically perform the operation (regeneration) of re-gasifying and discharging the accumulated gas (refer to Patent Documents 1 and 2). In recent years, in the field of manufacturing optical devices, vacuum processing has become common as oxygen (〇2) is introduced as a processing gas, and inside the vacuum chamber, activated oxygen molecules are subjected to a chemical reaction process to generate ozone ( The case of 〇3) is gradually increasing. When a refrigerating pump is used in such a vacuum process, ozone is also accumulated as a mixed solid of ozone in the interior of the refrigerating pump, similarly to other gases which are treated in the air. The oxygen/ozone mixed condensed solid is in the operation of the aforementioned two-beam pump, and the ozone phase is extinguished, and then steamed and sent. In this liquid oxygen, since oxygen lower than the boiling point of ozone is first emulsified: evaporated, the dissolved ozone in the liquid oxygen becomes concentrated liquid ozone. The liquid ozone of Ba/Chen is unstable and relies on physical and chemical stimuli to rapidly resolve to oxygen. However, this decomposition reaction is destructive with the spark and explosion shock caused by heat. In addition, if the decomposition reaction of ozone occurs in the state where the inside of the refrigeration pump is 3/32 201030234 filled with a flammable atmosphere, the spark generated by the reaction heat will ignite in the atmosphere and cause cold; Burning accident.

累積在冷凍泵之臭氧發火所造成的影響,係臭氧的量 越大就越嚴重。於是,有透過頻繁地操作冷滚果以防止臭 氧蓄積量增加之方法。但是,於操作時真空裝置無法連續 排氣,因而不得不頻繁地停止真空處理。又,因為沒有能 直接且定量地監視真空處理環境中之臭氧生成量之觀測手 法,所以要預測迄至臭氧被累積既定量為止之裝置運用時 間(利用冷凍泵之連續排氣時間)乃極為困難。 另一方面,目 氧無害化的技術。 則存在各種在真空下透過觸媒作用使臭 '例如,在專散獻3 _—齡聽之錢的無害化 方法及其裝置’係把具有臭氧分解觸媒作㈣金化 成形體設置於廢氣㈣出配管,分解廢氣中所含之 之無害化並朝大氣壓環境排出。 六乳仗The effect of ozone igniting accumulated in the refrigerating pump is greater as the amount of ozone is increased. Therefore, there is a method of preventing the increase in the amount of ozone accumulation by frequently operating the cold rolling fruit. However, the vacuum apparatus cannot be continuously exhausted during operation, and thus the vacuum processing has to be stopped frequently. Moreover, since there is no observation method capable of directly and quantitatively monitoring the amount of ozone generated in the vacuum processing environment, it is extremely difficult to predict the operation time of the device (using the continuous exhaust time of the refrigerating pump) until the ozone is accumulated. . On the other hand, the technology of harmless oxygenation. There is a variety of ways to make the odor of the odor by the action of the catalyst under vacuum, for example, the device and the device for dissipating the money to be used for the purpose of providing the ozone decomposing catalyst (4). The piping is discharged to decompose the detoxification contained in the exhaust gas and discharge it to the atmospheric pressure environment. Six milk thistle

Therefore, the accumulation of cold odor and oxygen can be suppressed, and the danger of ignition due to the decomposition reaction of the concentrated liquid ozone during the operation of the refrigerating pump can be prevented and the refrigeration pump burned thereby. The heating unit may be provided in the above-described exhaust passage, and may be provided at the above-mentioned room or chamber. Further, the heating means may be provided in each of the exhaust passage and the processing chamber. " By placing the heating unit in the exhaust passage, the ozone in the gas discharged from the processing chamber can be thermally decomposed efficiently. Further, by disposing the heating unit in the process, the ozone generated in the processing chamber can be subjected to heat treatment in the treatment (four), and the vacuum evacuation method according to an embodiment of the present invention is related to the use of cold.

Thereby, it is possible to prevent the risk of igniting the anti-(four) ignition during the cold heading operation and the resulting cold hiding. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, the embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. (First Embodiment) Fig. 1 is a side cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a vacuum processing apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The vacuum processing apparatus 1 of the present embodiment is provided with a vacuum chamber 1G. The vacuum chamber 1G includes a process for processing the substrate w, a pump chamber 12 for exhausting the process $11, and a pipe 13 for connecting the process chamber U and the chest chamber 12. The vacuum chamber is made of a metal material such as a whole bell steel. Flying stainless In the present embodiment, the piping 13 forms an exhaust passage 13A for guiding the exhaust gas from the processing chamber u toward the pump chamber 。. The pipe 13 is composed of a first pipe member and a second pipe member 132. The first pipe member 131 is connected to the processing chamber ", and the second pipe member 132 is connected to the fruit chamber 12. The button member forms a part of the pipe 13 between the first pipe member (3) and the second pipe member 132, and thus is also provided with a vacuum. A valve chamber 14 of a part of the tank 10. The processing chamber 11 has a support table 15 that supports the substrate W. The processing chamber u forms a vacuum for vacuum-treating the substrate w supported by the support table 15. In the present embodiment, as a vacuum The treatment is exemplified by a film formation treatment (for example, a sputtering method or a vapor deposition method) using a gas containing oxygen or ozone in a treatment gas, or a plasma using such a gas (indicated by the reference p in the first drawing). Processing of 10/32 201030234, etc. The processing gas is introduced into the processing chamber 11 through the gas introduction pipe 18. Further, a plasma generating source (high-frequency coil, magnetic) (not shown) is provided outside or inside the vacuum chamber 10. In the case of the vacuum processing, in addition to the above, exposure, analysis, surface observation, etc. using an electron beam may be used. In the present embodiment, it is applicable to the processing chamber. Ozone generating Various treatments: A cold trap (very low temperature portion) 161 of the refrigeration pump 19 is disposed inside the pump chamber 12. The gas system in the vacuum chamber 10 is adsorbed or condensed in the cold trap 161. The collected exhaust gas (process gas) is accumulated in the refrigeration pump 19 as a solidified solid, and is temporarily liquefied when the refrigeration pump 19 is operated, and finally vaporized and evaporated. It is a casing of a refrigerating pump, a pump which is part of the vacuum tank 1 to 12, and a low-temperature mechanical refrigerator which is immersed in a GM (Giff〇rd-McMah〇n) refrigerator or the like provided in the pump chamber I] 162. It is a part of the mechanical refrigerator 162, a cold head 163 which is a low-temperature generating part, and is thermally disposed in a good contact with the low temperature part. 16.3 is used to condense or adsorb the exhaust gas. The cold trap 161 is held at a very low temperature by the mechanical refrigerator 162. The cold trap 161 can be formed in a planar shape, a coil shape, or the like. The valve body 14 is housed inside the valve chamber 14. The body 17 is constructed to be openable in the exhaust passage 13A. The position moves freely between the closed position of the shielded exhaust passage 13A. The valve body 17 changes the conductance of the gas passing through the exhaust passage 13A. Further, the valve body π may have a gate valve or a slit valve or the like. A valve structure that can be hermetically sealed between the processing chamber 11 and the pump chamber 12. 11/32 201030234 The vacuum processing apparatus 1 further includes a heating unit 20 for thermally decomposing ozone molecules present in the tank 10. In the present embodiment, a configuration example in which the heating unit 20 is disposed in the exhaust passage 13A is shown. The heating unit 20 has a single or a plurality of heaters 21 and a heating power source (not shown). In the present embodiment, the heaters 21 are arranged at a plurality of intervals in the direction intersecting the axial direction of the exhaust passage 13A. The heater 2 has a heat generating surface 2 and a support body 212. The heat generating surface 2n may be composed of a resistance heating body, a metal plate of a built-in heating source, or the like. The support body 212 is a plate-like member, and the heat-generating surface 21 is supported on the surface facing the side of the processing chamber 1 . The support body 212 is attached to the first pipe member 131 via the shaft portion m. For the power supply from the heating power source to the heat generating surface 211, for example, the core may be used as a part of the wiring, or the ridge line may be incorporated in the shaft portion m. The heating surface 211 is heated to a temperature sufficient to thermally decompose the ozone. The portion of the gas discharged from the processing chamber 11 is in contact with the heat generating surface 211 at the hearing path 13A. The ozone molecules in the gas in contact with the heat generating surface 211 are reduced to harmless oxygen by the thermal decomposition reaction represented by the following formula (1). 203-302 (1) _ In the case where the ozone concentration is constant, the thermal decomposition reaction of ozone is performed for the time when the heating temperature is higher. Therefore, the higher the temperature of the heat generating surface 211, the more efficiently the ozone can be decomposed. Further, by increasing the heating temperature A' of the heat generating surface 2, the ozone concentration of the exhaust towel can be effectively reduced. The temperature of the heat generating surface 211 can be set, for example, to 3 Torr. 〇 Above. The heating temperature of the heat generating surface 211 can be set to an appropriate value. According to the knife solution of the heat-acting knife, the higher the temperature of the heating element, the shorter the contact time with the surface of the heating element required for the decomposition reaction, and the ozone decomposing efficiency of 12/32 201030234 can be improved. When a high melting point metal such as tungsten (W) or ruthenium (Re) is used as a heating element, a temperature of 3 Torr or more can be maintained. However, for conductors that supply 'hot bodies' and supply current, copper (Cu) is usually used in industry, and its bright point, pure copper - is about 080 °c. In addition, in the case of more than 10 〇〇 (the temperature of TC, since the radiant heat system from the heating element exceeds 1 〇w per lCm2, even if a heating element having a small surface area is used, it is also oriented toward cold; radiant heat of Dongguo will become a problem. On the other hand, in the case where the heating element is steel, it can be seen that the state of heating to 3 (8) can reduce the concentration of ozone in the air by a few seconds. For the above reason, the heating of the heating surface 211 The upper limit of the temperature can be set to 1000 ° C. In particular, when the heat generating surface 211 is made of copper, the lower limit of the heating temperature can be set to 300. The arrangement interval of the heater 21 can be required by the exhaust passage 13 The exhaust gas velocity of the gas and the decomposition efficiency of the ozone are set as a reference. That is, the larger the arrangement interval is, the higher the gas conductance is, so that the flow resistance of the exhaust gas can be reduced, and on the other hand, the probability of contact between the ozone molecules and the heat generating body When the concentration is lowered, the decomposition efficiency of ozone is lowered. Conversely, the smaller the arrangement interval is, the more the decomposition efficiency of ozone is increased. However, since the air conduction becomes lower, the exhaust resistance becomes higher. Therefore, it is determined in the processing chamber 11 The arrangement conditions of the heaters 21 are set by the vacuum processing conditions (the amount of ozone generated and the exhaust velocity). In the heater 21 having the above configuration, the heat generating surface 211 is disposed on the side of the processing of the branch peptide 212 to the side 11. Thereby, the exhaust gas from the processing chamber η can be brought into efficient contact with the heat generating surface 211. The heat generating surface of the heating unit 21 can be kept away from the cold It 161, so that the cold cold card 161 is turned to a minimum temperature to ensure the desired temperature. The venting action of the support body 212 may also include a heat shielding layer as needed to block the radiant heat radiated by the k heat generating surface 211 toward the cold trap 161. The above heat shielding layer is, 13/32 201030234 can be supported The body 212 may be formed by laminating a heat insulating material. 'Or the whole of the support body 212 may be formed by adiabatic heating of the shaft portion m of the ^=11 。. This can be defined as the venting path. UA axis:: Angle position. By this, the contact probability of Rensi can be arbitrarily adjusted. The wiper H and the heat surface 211: the rotation position of the heater 21 is adjusted, ^

In addition, the β-rolling and exhausting passages function as valves of the degree of closure. The 1st system is a vacuum processing apparatus 1 which can be used as a general knowledge. Further, the pump unit of the embodiment of the present invention is constituted by the pump 12, the fitting * 13 (exhaust passage 13), and the cold plate 161 (cold beam pump 19). Further, the above-described fruit unit and heating unit 2〇 constitute a vacuum exhaust apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. The vacuum processing device constructed as above! The moisture and gas system existing in the vacuum chamber 1 is condensed or adsorbed in the cold trap 161. Thereby, the inside of the vacuum chamber 1 is maintained at a high vacuum or an ultra-high vacuum equivalent to an intermediate region or a molecular flow region. Therefore, the ozone-containing exhaust gas generated or introduced into the processing chamber 11 is introduced into the pump chamber 12 from the processing chamber 11 via the exhaust passage 13A. In this exhausting process, the ozone contained in the exhaust gas is thermally decomposed by being in contact with or colliding with the heat generating surface 211 heated to a high temperature (for example, 300 ° C to 1 Torr.) Ozone or reducing the concentration of ozone in the exhaust gas. According to the present embodiment, the ozone concentration of the condensed towel which is accumulated in the waste 14/32 201030234 of the refrigerating pump 19 can be efficiently reduced. Therefore, the liquefaction and gasification accompanying the condensed solids In the operation steps of the evaporating refrigerating pump, it is possible to prevent the ozone gas which is still present in the human body from being released into the atmosphere, and to reduce the cold damage caused by the decomposition reaction of the liquid ozone. In the form, ozone is not used as a catalyst, but is made into a high-vacuum state in which the inside of the vacuum chamber 1 is cleaned by decomposing only by heating.

The arrangement conditions of the hot surface 211 can be arbitrarily adjusted, and thus can be appropriately set depending on the type and condition of the vacuum processing of the corresponding substrate, and the complication of the device configuration can be suppressed. (Second Embodiment) Fig. 2 is a side cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a vacuum processing apparatus 2 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In addition, in the figure, the part corresponding to the above-described vacuum processing apparatus 1 (first drawing) is given to the same ship, and detailed description thereof is omitted. ^The vacuum of the real surface state is set to 2, and the heating unit of the ozone in the decomposition-decomposed exhaust gas is 20 is disposed at the point of the exhaust passage 13A, which is common to the vacuum processing apparatus 1 but in the heating unit The buckle is fitted in the valve chamber 14. . Internally, this is different from the vacuum processing device described above. The heating unit τ 20 includes a plurality of heaters 21 arranged in a space in the direction of the axial direction 15/32 201030234 of the subtracting passage 13A. The size, number, and position of the heater 2 (the surface 2) are not particularly limited, and are appropriately set depending on the valve chamber 4, the flow path area of the product and the exhaust passage 13A, and the like. In the valley vacuum processing apparatus 2, the valve body 17 is disposed closer to the processing chamber 11 than the heating unit. That is, when the process chamber is exhausted, the enthalpy heating unit 20 disregards the ozone in the exhaust gas. Therefore, in the case of reading the exhaust passage 13 and introducing a predetermined amount of ozone into the processing chamber u to process the base or the like, stable substrate processing in which the amount of ozone does not change can be performed. The valve body 17 may be disposed on the pump chamber I2 side of the heating unit without being limited to the above example. In this case, even if the exhaust passage 13α is blocked by the state 117, or the thermal decomposition of ozone in the processing chamber η can be obtained, it is also suitable for substrate processing such as ozone inevitably. Further, the heating unit 20 may be disposed in each of the exhaust passages and its components. Thereby, when the f η exhaust gas is processed, since the adder 21 is arranged in a plurality of stages along the axial direction of the exhaust passage 13 ,, ozone in the exhaust gas can be effectively removed. In this case, the contact between the exhaust gas and the heat generating surface 2ΐ can be improved by arranging the heater 21 positioned on the upstream side and the heater 2 positioned on the downstream side at positions separated from each other as viewed from the processing chamber side. (Third Embodiment) Fig. 3 is a side cross-sectional view schematically showing a configuration of a third embodiment of the present invention. In addition, in the figure, the part corresponding to the upper part 1 (the first figure) is a word-symbol and the detailed description thereof is omitted.

Therefore, the ozone in the gas is removed by the heater before being captured by the cold heart 61. In this case as well, the heating unit can be relocated to the processing chamber U or the valve chamber 14). Thereby, the ozone in the exhaust gas is efficiently removed. Further, as described above, by providing the support body supporting the heat generating surface 211 with heat shielding property, the correction 161 can be protected from the light heat from the heat generating surface 2 ι. (Fourth embodiment) FIG. 4 is a side cross-sectional view showing the configuration of a vacuum processing apparatus 4 according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention. In the drawings, the portions corresponding to the above-described vacuum processing apparatus 1 (---) are the same as those in the first embodiment, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted. The vacuum processing apparatus 4 of the present embodiment is common to the vacuum processing apparatus 1 in that the heating means for thermally decomposing the ozone in the exhaust gas is disposed in the exhaust passage 13A, but the heating unit 22 is plural The vacuum processing apparatus 1 is different from the grid type (striped) or mesh-shaped heating element.

Each of the heating elements 22A and 22B is typically constituted by a resistance heating element. By heating the heat generating bodies 22A and 22B to the thermal decomposition temperature of ozone or more, the ozone contained in the exhaust gas passing through the exhaust passage 13A is removed. As a result, the ozone concentration of the exhaust gas reaching the cold trap 161 is reduced, and the same effects as those of the first embodiment described above can be obtained. The heat generating bodies 22A and 22B are formed in a lattice shape or a mesh shape, whereby the exhaust gas can be efficiently prevented from flowing under the flow resistance of the exhaust gas in the exhaust passage 13A. _ Improve the pure decomposition efficiency of the money towel.

In addition, in the figure, the part corresponding to the above-described vacuum processing Ϊ^---) is given the same as that of the vacuum processing apparatus 5 of the present embodiment. The ozone heating unit in the present embodiment is disposed in the exhaust passage 18/32 201030234, and the vacuum processing apparatus 1 is common. However, in the present embodiment, the heating unit 23 is formed into a cylindrical shape, which is different from the vacuum processing apparatus described above. 1. In the vacuum processing apparatus 5 shown in Fig. 5, the heating unit 23 is configured by attaching a heating element to a circumferential surface of a cylindrical support. The sixth figure shows an enlarged top view of the heating unit 23 in detail. As shown in Fig. 6, the heating unit 23 has a first cylindrical support body 231 positioned on the inner peripheral side and a second cylindrical support body 234 positioned on the outer peripheral side. Heat generating bodies 232 and 235 are fixed to the outer circumferential surfaces of the first and first circular request bodies 231 and 234, respectively. The heating elements 232 and 235 are formed by a plurality of annular heat generating materials, and are arranged in the axial direction of the supporting members 231 and 234. The first cylindrical support body 231 and the second cylindrical support body 234 are integrally formed concentrically with each other by a plurality of flat relay members 233. m The heating unit 23 configured as described above is disposed in the axial direction of the exhaust passage 13A (first pipe member 131) as shown in Fig. 5 . Therefore, the exhaust gas from the processing chamber η passes through the inner peripheral portion and the outer peripheral portion of the heating unit 23 to reach the pump chamber 12, and the heating elements 232 and 235 are respectively heated to 3 Torr. The temperature above 〇 is thermally decomposed and removed from the exhaust gas in contact with the heating elements 232, 235. By observing the pure ozone concentration of the turtle arrival material 101, the same effects as those of the first embodiment described above can be obtained. The heating unit 23 may also be disposed on the side of the second pipe member 132. In addition, the supporting structure of the heating element of the branch building is not limited to a tubular shape, and the village is in the shape of (4). It is also possible to combine two types of foods of the two types of miscellaneous food, or two or more layers.

The eighth (A) to (D) shows a typical configuration example of the heater 3A. The eighth diagram (A) shows the heater 31 composed of the heating element 311 and the support body 312 supporting the heating element. The heating element 311 is disposed on the support body 312 so as to be adjacent to the inside of the processing chamber. The support body 312 can be formed by a single or a plurality of plates or curved plates fixed to the vacuum slot 10. In terms of constituting the heater 31, the support body 312 is not essential, and of course, the heat generating body 311 may be separately provided at a predetermined position of the processing chamber U. This is the same as the above-described vacuum processing apparatus 1 (first drawing). The eighth diagram (B) shows the heater 32 composed of a linear heating element. As the linear heating element, a wire-shaped heating element such as a wire made of a high-melting-point metal material such as tungsten or a rod heater can be used, and the heater 32 can be formed by being pulled around the processing chamber 11. Such a heater 32 has a high degree of freedom of installation, and may be provided not only in the processing chamber 11 but also in the exhaust passage 13A. Further, a support body having no heat generating effect may be added as a support for the linear heat generating body. The eighth diagram (C) shows the heater 33 composed of a mesh heating element. Compared with the 21/32 201030234 linear heating element, it has the advantage of increasing the effective area. The mesh heating element is not limited to a mesh shape, and a lattice-shaped heating element or a punched metal may be applied. The heater 33 is not only the processing chamber n but also the exhaust passage 13A. Further, it is also possible to add a branch body which does not have a heat generating effect as a branch of a mesh-shaped heat generating body.第八 Figure 8 (D) shows the heater % composed of a multi-recorded heating element. The porous material can increase the decomposition efficiency of ozone due to the accumulation of the table. As a typical example of the porous heating element, a porous f Sic heating element can be cited, and a hair-shaped heating element can be applied. The addition material 34 may be provided not only in the processing chamber n but also in the exhaust passage 13??, and the multi-recording heating element may be composed of a non-heat generating porous material and a heating element for heating the same. As shown in the ninth figure, only one copper wire 120 is provided in the processing chamber m (vacuum tank). The processing chamber ηι is maintained at a predetermined pressure (9), and the copper wire is heated to a high temperature _. Hey. Then, the ozone generated by the ozone generator 140 is led to the processing chamber 111, and the residual ozone in the processing chamber (1) is measured by the quadrupole spectrometer 15 (). The concentration of ozone (〇3/〇2) generated by the ozone generator 140 is set to 7 〇〇〇 ppjjj. The tenth figure shows the ozone detection output of the quadrupole mass spectrometer 15 在 under the condition that the steel wire (10) generates heat ((10)) and the case where it does not heat (OFF). It is possible to heat up and at a surface temperature of 9 〇 () ° C, the detection of ozone is significantly reduced. On the other hand, when the heat generation of the copper wire 12 is stopped, the detection output of the ozone returns to the initial value. It can be understood from the tenth figure that the ozone is based on the high temperature copper wire (10) and is surely the solution Z: solution. Further, 'the ratio (b/a) of the /y(9) detected by the analyzer 15G when the output of the analyzer 15G is detected by the analyzer 15G, L, i(a), and the time when the copper wire 12G is hot is known. The decomposition efficiency of ozone is 82%. 22/32 201030234, in the above experimental example in which the heater is constituted by a linear heating element having a small collision probability with ozone molecules, high-efficiency ozonolysis can be obtained, and a plurality of linear heating elements can be provided or used. The surface heating element can be improved by the ozone decomposing effect. From the above results, the present invention is very effective as an ozone decomposing mechanism in a vacuum. In the above experimental example, the hot wire is replaced by a copper wire and an indium wire. 120 ’ did the same experiment. As a result, in the case of the iron wire, 68% of the ozone decomposition efficiency can be obtained at the surface temperature of 970 c, and the odds ratio of the steel wire can be obtained at the l_t of the steel wire. The results of New Zealand can be solved by the fact that the surface temperature is kept at an appropriate high temperature (in the case of the upper (four) impurity l_t), and the ozone decomposition efficiency is the same as that of the copper wire. This suggests that the ozone decomposition efficiency is not dependent on the material of the high temperature surface and is only strongly dependent on the surface temperature. Further, since the material used for the high-temperature surface is not limited to a specific material, it means that a material suitable for the conditions of the vacuum treatment and the vacuum chamber can be selected. In order to confirm the validity of the above test wire, the collision of the ozone molecules toward the hot line in the experimental mode of the ninth figure was obtained by computer simulation of the motion and collision of the brewed gas molecules. The result is shown in the eleventh figure. As shown in the tenth line of the solid line, the collision probability of the ozone molecules toward the hot line is dependent on the opening degree of the main exhaust valve of the vacuum exhaust system. 'The ozone decomposition efficiency obtained from the results of the above experiments is close to the point of the black square of the tenth-graph, and it can be understood that it is very close to the simulation result. Since the experimental value can be explained by the molecular collision according to the simulation, it can be said that the decomposition efficiency of the ozone molecule is equal to the impact of the ozone molecule toward the high temperature surface. 23/32 201030234 probability 2 This shows that the principle of the present invention is that the ozone molecule will be The principle of direct thermal decomposition of high temperature surfaces is actually JE. Mn. Further, in the wedge, an ozone decomposing efficiency close to % can be obtained by reducing the opening degree of the main exhaust valve. This means that the ozone decomposition efficiency can be set and maintained at the target value. The shape, area, and location of the high-temperature surface are subject to many limitations due to the true structure and/or; however, high ozone decomposing efficiency can be achieved by adjusting the opening and closing of the main exhaust valve. This can be said to be one of the great conveniences of the present invention.

The same as the first picture. This configuration is one of the components for obtaining a higher ozone decomposition efficiency by the opening degree of the main discharge (concealed). Inside the exhaust system, the oxygen molecules are incident (ηί) from the suction side interface, and the space around the heater 21 is disorderly.

Therefore, the formula (4) is the formula (6) of the fourth formula. r = l {l + (Ae / Ah) + C} (6) The simple area ratio as shown in the formula (5) is expressed as a number). In addition, the shape and arrangement of the molecules that escape from the side interface are dependent on the arrangement and the shape of the pipe η. Since there is no i, it is set to (nb/nh)=C (often by the formula (6), when the main is reduced When the opening degree of the exhaust valve (the valve body 1 &lt; 7) is small, Ae becomes small. 'The ozone decomposition efficiency (7) is an asymptotic maximum value 丨. Conversely, it can be seen that the Ae is close to the cross-sectional area of the strip 132 by opening the main exhaust valve 17' (Ac) 1 Ozone decomposition efficiency is the asymptotic minimum 1/{1+(Ac/Ah)+C}. The reason is that the phase s ' is small because the constant c is small, so the formula (6) can also be set to the formula (7). =Ui+(Ae/Ah)}...(7). The lifetime (r) until the cold beam pump is operated is allowed to be cold; the allowable amount of ozone (M) discharged from the east pump and the ozone generated by vacuum injection per hour The amount (G) is determined by the formula (8). r, /G) / (ir) ·.•(8). This formula can be said to be 'compared with, for example, ozone completely undecomposed (r 25/ 32 201030234 =〇) 'In the case where the life span is to be doubled, it is expected that the decomposition efficiency of ozone is at least written above (7^〇.5). The main exhaust valve corresponding to the ozone decomposition efficiency of 50% Opening degree (Ae) is from equation (7) For the first (9).

That is, by reducing the opening degree (Ae) of the main exhaust valve to the same extent as the total area (Ah) of the heat generating surface 211, the ozone decomposing efficiency of 50% is achieved. The Ah system is dependent on the design, but it is more appropriate to limit the air conduction of the exhaust system to 1/2 of the cross-sectional area (Ae) of the piping. With this condition, ® (9) becomes the (1〇) formula. 〇&lt;Ae$Ac/2 ...(1〇). In other words, the opening degree of the main exhaust valve is reduced (in the case where Ah is small) to be less than 5% by weight of the cross-sectional area (Ac) of the pipe to achieve an ozone decomposition efficiency of 5% or more.
