Abstract: A high frequency power supply device and power supplying method are disclosed, which can rapidly and accurately control power used for generation of plasmas. The device includes a first high frequency power supply, providing power at frequency f1, and a second high frequency power supply providing power at frequency f2 (f1>f2). The first power supply includes: a first high frequency oscillator, which excites the high frequency power at the first frequency and has a variable frequency; a first power amplification block, which amplifies the power of the high frequency oscillator; a heterodyne detection block, which performs heterodyne detection of a reflected wave; and a first control block, which receives a signal after detection of the heterodyne detection block and a traveling wave signal, and controls an oscillating frequency of the first high frequency oscillating block and an output of the first power amplification block.

Abstract: A method of highly efficiently transferring various selected molecules into various cells and a method of fusing cells. Cells and/or selected molecules such as polynucleotide are treated with cold gas plasma to thereby transfer the selected molecules located around cells into the cells, or cells are fused by treating the cells with cold gas plasma. Moreover, an apparatus for transferring selected molecules or fusing cells having a cold gas plasma generation unit for transferring selected molecules into cells is provided.

Abstract: A plasma discharger in which, even on a rotating disk-like workpiece, a uniform energy distribution can be obtained over a wide range is provided. In a plasma discharger in which a pulse voltage is applied to a pair of rod-like discharge electrodes (6) (7) to produce a corona discharge between the discharge electrodes (6) (7), and the surface of a workpiece (W) is irradiated with excited species including plasma produced by the corona discharge, the pair of rod-like discharge electrodes (6) (7) are formed into an asymmetrical shape, and one discharge electrode (6) is formed into a substantially L-like shape.

Abstract: This matching unit is used for a semiconductor plasma processing apparatus supplying high-frequency power via feeding line to an electrode provided in a chamber, and includes first and second variable capacitors, and a distributed constant circuit, which is structured by copper plates connected between an electrode of the second variable capacitor and an end of an internal conductor of the feeding line and the like. The distributed constant circuit and the feeding line delay the phase of a high-frequency voltage by ½ wavelength. Therefore, the same state as those when the electrode of the second variable capacitor and the electrode inside the chamber are directly connected can be realized, and matching is easily attained.

Abstract: A high frequency detection circuit detects information about a first high frequency power in a high frequency power source device supplying the first high frequency power having a first frequency and a second high frequency power having a second frequency lower than the first frequency to a load. A third high frequency signal that is a mixed signal of a first high frequency signal having the first frequency and a second high frequency signal having the second frequency is detected by a directional coupler. The third high frequency signal is converted to a fourth high frequency signal having a third frequency between the first and second frequencies using a heterodyne system. A progressive wave power of the first frequency is detected based on the fourth high frequency signal.

Abstract: Without requiring ejection of air or the like, the amount and area of irradiation of excited species to a workpiece surface can be increased, the whole surface can be uniformly irradiated, and the loss of effective excited species can be suppressed, whereby the treatment performance and the treatment efficiency can be remarkably improved.

Abstract: In the invention, an oscillating horn of an ultrasonic processing apparatus is moved along a planned process line and along the side of a rear face of a resin skin which is fixedly held so that the front face is closely in contact with a flat face of a surface table, whereby a resin for the skin is sequentially fused by ultrasonic vibration, and a fused resin is removed to sides to process a linear groove. Therefore, the linear groove having a reproducible constant breakage resistance can be efficiently processed on the side of the rear face of the skin, without applying any damage to a design face, and with reduced power consumption and simple control.
