摘要:
A ceramic hydrodynamic bearing used as a radial or a thrust bearing in a spindle motor for a hard disk driver. The bearing includes a ceramic bearing base having hydrodynamic pressure generating grooves. A sliding surface of the bearing base is irradiated with an energy beam with a high energy density to remove said material, thereby forming hydrodynamic pressure generating groove, and at the same time the grooves are coated with a modification layer that is formed by melting the ceramic material that constitutes said ceramic bearing base with the energy beam and by solidifying said ceramic bearing base.

摘要:
In an improved ozonizer, at least those parts of an ozone gas delivery path located downstream of an ozone generating cell which are to come into contact with ozone gas are either composed of or coated with at least one ozone-resistant, Cr-free material selected from among aluminum (Al), an aluminum alloy, Teflon, fluorinated nickel, a nickel alloy, a silicon oxide based glass and a high-purity aluminium oxide. The ozonizer is capable of producing ozone that is not contaminated with Cr compounds at all or which is insufficiently contaminated to cause any practical problem in the fabrication of highly integrated semiconductor devices.
摘要:
Ozonizer (10) which supplies a feed gas to ozone generating cell (11) under application of a high voltage and which delivers an ozone gas through an ozone gas transport path (consisting of pipes (14) and (15)) as it has been generated in said ozone generating cell (11) is characterized in that the ozone gas transport path is furnished with means for removing at least one of NOx, HF and SOx (in the drawings, the means is for removing NOx) and that the ozone gas from the ozone generating cell (11) is passed through said removing means, whereby at least one of NOx, HF and SOx in said ozone gas is removed before it is delivered to a subsequent stage. The product ozone is not contaminated with Cr compounds at all or insufficiently contaminated to cause any practical problems in the fabrication of highly integrated semiconductor devices. Alternatively, ozonizer (10) which comprises an ozone generating cell (11) having an inlet (8) for supplying a feed gas, high voltage applying means (35) and an outlet (29) for discharging the ozone generated, and ozone delivery paths (30) and (31) for delivering the generated ozone is characterized in that oxygen (1) supplemented with 10 - 20 vol% of carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide (2) is used as the feed gas. The thus produced ozone is significantly low in the level of Cr compounds and, hence, can suitably be used in the formation of metal oxides, in particular, silicon oxide.
