A process for connecting a molybdenum foil to a lead portion with sufficient strength and reliability in which an expensive binder, such as platinum, platinum clad molybdenum, or the like, is not used. According to the invention, a carbon containing or carbon coated molybdenum part is placed between the molybdenum foil and the molybdenum lead portion and then the two are resistance welded to one another. Furthermore, a hermetically enclosed part of a lamp can be produced by this process.
摘要:
A dielectric barrier discharge lamp having a generally cylindrical double-tube arrangement of an outer tube coaxially disposed about an inner tube, with an outer electrode disposed on an outside surface of the outer tube, an inner electrode disposed on an inside surface of the inner tube, and a discharge space provided between the outer tube and the inner tube which is filled with a discharge gas for formation of excimer molecules by dielectric barrier discharge achieves firm engagement of the inner electrode against the inner tube and a stable discharge over a long time even if part of the electrode corrodes due to the ozone produced or it wears. This is achieved by embodiments in which the inner electrode is a generally tubular part which is slit in an axial direction along the full length thereof. The tubular part can be a single cylindrically sheet having opposite longitudinally extending edges spaced from each other by a gap or overlapped. Alternatively, the tubular part can be formed of a pair of substantially semi-cylindrical parts which are separated by a gap between each pair of longitudinally extending edges.

In a dielectric barrier discharge lamp, in which a discharge vessel, in which a discharge gas forming "excimer" molecules is encapsulated, is provided with a dielectric provided with a netlike electrode and a window, through which the light goes, the first object of the invention is achieved by an arrangement in which a thickness of ends of the above-described netlike electrodes is greater than the average thickness of the entire electrode. Another object of the invention is achieved by an arrangement in which a holder incorporated in the discharge vessel has an outer dimension that is less than/equal to an outer dimension of the netlike electrodes. A further object of the invention is achieved by an arrangement by which the discharge vessel has a hollow cylindrical shape formed from an external tube and an internal tube and a means for hermetic sealing is arranged inside the internal tube.

A dielectric barrier discharge lamp device which allows ultraviolet rays to be uniformly radiated onto a workpiece having a large surface area and which can be easily adapted to the size of workpiece. In the dielectric barrier, at least one dielectric barrier discharge lamp is arranged in a hermetically sealed casing which has a hollow longitudinally extending main part that is closed at both ends by end parts, at least a portion of the main part of the casing defining a window allowing light radiated from the at least one dielectric barrier discharge lamp to pass therethrough onto the workpiece. At least one end part of the casing is provided with a passage allowing inert gas to be introduced into the casing, and at least one end part of the casing is adapted to allow loading or unloading of the at least one dielectric barrier discharge lamp. A plurality of casings are arranged side by side with their windows facing the workpiece to be irradiated.
摘要:
A substrate supporting film to be etched is held on a rotating stage. Ultraviolet light having a wavelength of 200 nm or shorter radiated from first lamps irradiates the film in air, thereby removing an organic coatings from the film and making the surface of the film hydrophilic. A chemical solution is applied to the hydrophilic film while rotating the substrate. Ultraviolet light having a wavelength longer than 200 nm is radiated from second lamps and onto the film through the chemical solution.

To advantageously eliminate the disadvantage of attenuation of the radiant light from dielectric barrier discharge lamps by a UV transmission component, a treatment device using dielectric barrier discharge lamps is provided with a lamp chamber in which dielectric barrier discharge lamps are located and in which there is an inert gas atmosphere; a treatment chamber, in which an article to be treated is located, is provided with a treatment gas atmosphere, and a UV transmission component by which the lamp chamber and the treatment chamber are separated from one another. In each of the lamp chamber and the treatment chamber there are devices for determining the gas pressure within the respective chamber, a supply arrangement for delivering gas to the inside the respective chamber and an arrangement for discharging gas from the respective chamber. A control device regulates the pressure of the gas atmosphere within the lamp chamber and the pressure of the gas atmosphere of the treatment chamber relative to one another by determining the gas pressures of the lamp chamber and the treatment chamber.
