To provide a concentration measurement method with which the concentrations of predetermined chemical components can be measured non-destructively, accurately, and rapidly by a simple means, up to the concentrations in trace amount ranges, as well as a concentration measurement method with which the concentrations of chemical components in a measurement target can be accurately and rapidly measured in real time up to the concentrations in nano-order trace amount ranges, and which is endowed with a versatility that can be realized in a variety of embodiments and modes. [Solution] In the present invention, a measurement target is irradiated, in a time sharing manner, with light of a first wavelength and light of a second wavelength that have different optical absorption rates with respect to the measurement target. The light of each wavelength, arriving optically via the measurement target as a result of irradiation with the light of each wavelength, is received at a shared light-receiving sensor. A differential signal is formed, the differential signal being of a signal pertaining to the light of the first wavelength and a signal pertaining to the light of the second wavelength, the signals outputted from the light-receiving sensor upon receipt of the light. The concentration of a chemical component in the measurement target is derived on the basis of the differential signal.

Flow rate control accuracy is prevented from being reduced in a low flow rate region to enable highly accurate flow rate control over the entire flow rate control region. By this, a chamber inner pressure is highly accurately controlled over a wide range by regulating the flow rate of a gas fed to a chamber. A gas feeding device for feeding a gas to a chamber, where the device is constituted of parallelly connected pressure-type flow rate control devices and a control device for controlling the flow rate control devices and feeds a desired gas, while controlling the flow rate, to a chamber deaerated by a vacuum pump. The gas feeding device is constructed such that one of the pressure-type flow control devices controls a gas flow rate range of up to 10% maximum of the maximum flow rate fed to the chamber and the remaining flow control devices control the remaining range. Further, a pressure detector is installed on a chamber and a detected value from the detector is inputted in the control device. Control signals to the pressure-type flow rate control devices are regulated to control the amount of the gas fed to the chamber, controlling a chamber inner pressure.

摘要:
A dewatering method for gas supply systems which is adapted for effective removal of adsorbed water by ordinary-temperature exhaust processing without using the baking method. The dewatering method for gas supply systems which remove water remaining inside a gas supply system by passing a dewatering gas through the gas supply system, characterized in that the dewatering gas flow pressure is set at values which are above a minimum pressure at which the gas flow becomes a viscous flow but which are below the saturated vapor pressure of water at the dewatering gas flow temperature. The condition under which the dewatering gas becomes a viscous flow is determined by the mean free path of gas molecules becoming smaller than the diameter of the piping for the gas supply system. If the dewatering gas is exhausted at ordinary temperature under such condition, the adsorbed water on the inner surface of the piping or in the valve filter can be effectively removed.
