【発明の詳細な説明】 産業上の利用分野 本発明は紫外線と紫外線により発生するオゾンとによ
り、ガラス,金属,プラスチック等の固体表面を処理す
る紫外線処理装置に関するものである。BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ultraviolet treatment apparatus for treating a solid surface such as glass, metal or plastic with ultraviolet rays and ozone generated by the ultraviolet rays.
従来の技術とその課題 近年、紫外線ランプを用いて有機汚染物を分解・除去す
る光洗浄や、ガラス・樹脂表面に紫外線を照射して、そ
の表面を改質してコーティングの際のぬれ性改善や、蒸
着膜の密着改善ができる技術が実用化されてきた。この
紫外線を利用した表面処理は洗浄効果が高いことから、
半導体や液晶表示装置の製造分野で有効な利用が期待さ
れている。Conventional technology and its problems In recent years, optical cleaning that decomposes and removes organic contaminants using an ultraviolet lamp, and irradiation of ultraviolet rays on the glass / resin surface to modify the surface to improve wettability during coating In addition, a technique that can improve the adhesion of the deposited film has been put into practical use. Since this surface treatment using ultraviolet rays has a high cleaning effect,
It is expected to be effectively used in the field of manufacturing semiconductors and liquid crystal display devices.
これらに用いられるランプは185nmと254nmを主とした波
長の紫外線を放射し、この185nm紫外線は空気中の酸素
をオゾンに変化させるため、多量のオゾンが発生する。
この185nm,254nmの紫外線とオゾンが被照射体表面に作
用して光洗浄や表面改質の効果をもたらすものである。The lamps used for these emit ultraviolet rays having wavelengths mainly at 185 nm and 254 nm, and the 185 nm ultraviolet rays change oxygen in the air into ozone, so a large amount of ozone is generated.
The 185 nm and 254 nm ultraviolet rays and ozone act on the surface of the irradiated object to bring about the effects of photocleaning and surface modification.
すなわち、185nmの紫外線が有機物の化学結合を切断
し、254nmの紫外線はオゾンに作用して活性化の酸素原
子を作り、切断された有機物と化学反応し、ガス状物質
に変化させたり、新規な表面層を形成したりするといわ
れている。That is, the 185 nm ultraviolet ray cuts the chemical bond of the organic substance, the 254 nm ultraviolet ray acts on ozone to make an activating oxygen atom, chemically reacts with the cut organic substance, and changes into a gaseous substance, It is said to form a surface layer.
紫外線を利用した表面処理は、紫外線照射により発生す
るオゾンを利用する。しかもオゾン濃度が高い方が処理
効率が上がる傾向にある。The surface treatment using ultraviolet rays uses ozone generated by irradiation with ultraviolet rays. Moreover, the treatment efficiency tends to increase as the ozone concentration increases.
一般にオゾンは波長185nmの紫外線の作用によって酸素
を酸化して発生させられ、熱によって分解して酸素に戻
る。したがって照射室内のオゾン濃度は次の3つに依存
する。Generally, ozone is generated by oxidizing oxygen by the action of ultraviolet rays having a wavelength of 185 nm, and is decomposed by heat to return to oxygen. Therefore, the ozone concentration in the irradiation chamber depends on the following three factors.
すなわち、 ランプから放射される紫外線出力が強いほど、 照射室内の雰囲気ガスの酸素濃度が高いほど、 雰囲気ガス中の温度が低いほど、 いずれもオゾン濃度は高くなる。In other words, the higher the UV output emitted from the lamp, the higher the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere gas in the irradiation chamber, and the lower the temperature in the atmosphere gas, the higher the ozone concentration.
紫外線出力は低圧水銀ランプの電力が大きいほど強くな
るが、単に電力を大きくするとランプ自身の発熱によ
り、水銀蒸気圧が高くなって低圧水銀ランプとして存在
しなくなり、185,254nmの紫外線は放射しにくくなる。The UV output becomes stronger as the power of the low-pressure mercury lamp is larger, but if the power is simply increased, the mercury vapor heat becomes higher and the mercury does not exist as a low-pressure mercury lamp. .
そこで発明者はランプの一部を水冷ボードに接触させて
水冷することで電力を大きくした低圧水銀ランプを実現
させることができた。すなわち、ランプアーク長あたり
の電力で示すと、通常の空冷式低圧水銀ランプは0.5W/c
m以下であるが、その4倍以上の2W/cm以上の高出力低圧
水銀ランプを実現することができたものである。Therefore, the inventor was able to realize a low-pressure mercury lamp in which electric power was increased by bringing a part of the lamp into contact with a water cooling board to perform water cooling. That is, in terms of electric power per lamp arc length, a normal air-cooled low-pressure mercury lamp is 0.5 W / c.
Although it is less than m, it is possible to realize a high-power low-pressure mercury lamp of 2 W / cm or more, which is four times that of m or less.
しかし、これらのランプを照射室内で点灯すると、ラン
プ電力が大きくて、照射室内の雰囲気ガス温度が高くな
るため、オゾンの分解によりオゾン濃度が低くなるとい
う問題があった。However, when these lamps are turned on in the irradiation chamber, there is a problem that the lamp power is large and the atmospheric gas temperature in the irradiation chamber is high, so that the ozone concentration is lowered due to the decomposition of ozone.

とを特徴とする。Means for Solving the Problem The present invention, in a UV treatment apparatus in which a lamp power per lamp tube length is 2 W / cm or more, and an ultraviolet lamp having two or more ultraviolet lamps installed facing each other on an object to be treated is for cooling the electrode part of the lamp. Equipped with a water cooling board and a water cooling pipe for cooling the wall surface of the irradiation chamber, and the UV lamp is the rated output when the irradiated object is placed between the lamps and the rated output when it is not inserted. It is characterized by lighting with a lamp output less than about half of the above.

因するオゾン濃度の低下を低く抑えることができる。Action Water cooling pipes are provided at appropriate intervals on the wall surface in the irradiation chamber to communicate with the lamp water cooling water cooling board, and water is used to cool the lamp and wall surface. The ambient gas heated by the lamp is brought into contact with the wall surface and the water cooling pipe to be cooled, so that the gas temperature can be lowered. In addition, by switching the lamp output to a lamp output that is less than about half of the rated output during standby when no irradiation target is inserted, the gas heating from the lamp can be reduced as much as possible, and the ozone concentration caused by the thermal decomposition of ozone can be reduced. It is possible to suppress the decrease of
実施例 以下、本発明を好適な実施例を用いて説明する。Examples Hereinafter, the present invention will be described using preferred examples.

低圧水銀ランプ1が2本配置され、治具3で支えられた
被処理物2を両側から照射して処理する。FIG. 1 is a schematic view of a surface treatment apparatus according to the present invention. Two low-pressure mercury lamps 1 made of synthetic quartz, which mainly radiate 185 nm and 254 nm, are arranged in the apparatus, and an object to be processed 2 supported by a jig 3 is irradiated from both sides for processing.
ランプ1は高出力化するための電極部を金属ブロック4

によって、ランプアーク長1m,ランプ電力400Wの高出力
低圧水銀ランプが得られた。The lamp 1 has a metal block 4 with an electrode portion for high output.
Then, the board 5 is covered with water and cooled by bringing it into contact with the water-cooled board 5. As a result, a high-output low-pressure mercury lamp with a lamp arc length of 1 m and a lamp power of 400 W was obtained.

By passing water through this, the wall surface of the irradiation chamber is cooled to keep the ambient gas temperature in the room low. I am able to do it.
ランプ1は被処理物2が挿入されているときは定格出力
の400Wとするが、挿入されていない待機中では定格出力
の約半分の200Wに切替えられるようにしている。The lamp 1 has a rated output of 400 W when the object to be processed 2 is inserted, but can be switched to 200 W, which is about half of the rated output, in the standby state when the object 2 is not inserted.
これにより、対向しているランプから相互に加熱されて
高温となり、ランプ寿命が短くなるのを防止できると共
に、照射中と待機中のサイクル条件にもよるが、照射室
内のガス温度も低下して、加熱によるオゾン分解を抑え
てオゾン濃度が低下するのを防止する効果もある。This prevents the lamps that are facing each other from being heated to high temperatures and shortening the lamp life, and also reduces the gas temperature in the irradiation chamber, depending on the cycle conditions during irradiation and standby. Also, it has an effect of suppressing ozone decomposition due to heating and preventing a decrease in ozone concentration.

図中の曲線Aは従来の装置を用いた場合であり、照射室
壁面を水冷せずランプ出力は切り替えず、待機中でも定
格出力で点灯させている。この場合、オゾン濃度は点灯
数分後t1に最大値がえられるが、照射室内の温度が高く

いく。A curve A in the figure shows the case where the conventional apparatus is used, the wall surface of the irradiation chamber is not water-cooled, the lamp output is not switched, and the lamp is lit at the rated output even in the standby state. In this case, the ozone concentration reaches its maximum value at t 1 after a few minutes of lighting, but it decreases to less than half of the maximum value at t 2 when the temperature inside the irradiation chamber becomes stable.
一方、曲線Bは本発明に基づき壁面を水冷し、照射処理

In this case, the decrease rate was small even after the ozone concentration reached the maximum value, and the high ozone concentration was maintained.
