摘要:
A method for forming a molecular film includes the steps of:
coating a surface of a substrate having active hydrogen atoms on its surface with a coating solution containing a silane-based compound having at least one reactive group selected from the group consisting of a chloro group, an alkoxy group and an isocyanate group; and effecting an elimination reaction between the active hydrogen atoms on the surface of the substrate and reactive groups of the silane-based compound, thereby covalently bonding the silane-based compounds to the surface of the substrate. The substrate 2 is supplied to a chamber 11 in which an atmosphere is maintained at a low water vapor density. The surface of the substrate is coated with a coating solution containing the silane-based compound and a solvent by using a transfer element. A dehydrochlorination reaction is effected between the active hydrogen atoms and the chloro groups of the silane-based compounds. Thereafter, any coating solution containing unreacted silane-based compounds after coating is removed inside or outside the chamber 11.

This invention provides a contamination-resistant float glass showing even quality in durability and its good quality sufficienty. The film for contamination-resistance is formed only on the top-side surface of a float glass. The surface, free from tin diffused from a float bath, can be identified by ultraviolet irradation. A solution including a chemical adsorbent like fluoroalkyltrichlorosilane is applied to the top-side surface by a roller coater. The adsorbent can be prevented from hydrolyzing with dry air around the coating portion of the coater. Surplus solution can be removed with dry air blown on the surface to make the contamination-resistant property and the appearance better. The chemical adsorbent is bonded to the surface via a siloxane bond to form a thin film. The contamination-resistant float glass is installed in the front door of an apparatus like a toaster oven with the film facing the inside of the oven. The film on the top-side surface shows higher contact angles than that on the bottom-side surface in durability tests.

Disclosed is a probe for use in a scanning tunneling microscope which can measure a macromolecule, i.e., a protein molecule. The probe is manufactured by covering a metal wire having a sharp end with a thin organic film, removing an end of the metal wire by an electric field evaporation process, electrodepositing metal ions on the metal wire and removing a portion of the organic film. A monomolecular film is formed on the surface of a metal wire by chemically adsorbing a chlorosilane based chemical adsorbent. Only a tip of the chemically adsorbed film is removed by the electric field evaporation procedure, and the metal ions are electrodeposited on the tip of the metal wire. As a result, a sharp metal tip is formed. After that, the chemically adsorbed film is removed by alkyl treatment.

Disclosed is an ion sensor whose electrode (1) is covered with a water-repelling organic chemically adsorbed film (2), which is formed with at least one hole (4) permitting the passage of ions but preventing the passage of biopolymers, (eg proteins in blood) thereby allowing accurate measurement of ion concentrations over a long period. In forming the silane-based chemically adsorbed monomolecular film (2) on the surface of the electrode, a hole dozens of angstroms in diameter is formed on an organic thin film by physically adsorbing the mask compound (3) and then washing it away. The sensor can also be used in a solution containing numerous impurities, and for monitoring ion activities in vivo by implanting it in the body.
摘要:
On the stationary side of a radial bearing constructed of a plurality of magnetic poles, the magnetic poles are formed into a shape such that the magnetic flux density distribution formed between the inner surfaces of these magnetic poles and a rotor located on the rotating side of the radial bearing has a distribution inclined from the magnetic pole end portion to the magnetic pole center portion. With this arrangement, the rate of change in magnetic flux density during the shift of the rotor from a magnetic pole to the adjacent magnetic pole is reduced, thereby reducing the eddy current loss and heat generation.

A latent image comprising a first substance formed on a substrate of a second substance having a surface tension different from a surface tension of the first substance, the first substance and the substrate having a difference of 0.1 to 100nm in height from each other. The latent image is formed by a method comprising the step of subjecting a substrate of a first substance to a chemical treatment or a physical treatment to form a surface of a second substance which has a surface tension different from a surface tension of the first substance and has a difference of 0.1 to 100nm in height from the substrate on part of the substrate. The latent image is developed by a method comprising the steps of contacting a latent image comprising a first substance formed on a substrate of a second substance having a surface tension different from a surface tension of the first substance with a third substance different from the first substance and the second substance, and applying a developing ray to the latent image.
