Abstract: A method for regulating climate, comprising: 1) allowing the formation of a relatively high temperature zone and a low temperature zone in the air above the ground; 2) allowing the formation of air convection between the high temperature zone and the low temperature zone as the cold air in the low temperature zone has a greater density than the hot air in the high temperature zone. A device for regulating climate is, i.e. an automatic air tower. The automatic air tower comprises a column (1) with an air inlet (12) at the bottom, wherein the column comprises a startup unit (13) and a shutdown unit (14) inside and has an air outlet (15) at the top. The aforesaid method and tower can prevent and eliminate the formation of haze and cool the earth's ground.

Abstract: Processes for surface treatment of a workpiece are provided. In one example implementation, organic radicals (e.g., methyl CH3 radicals) can be generated by exciting and/or dissociating hydrogen and/or inert gas (e.g., Ar, He, etc) molecules in a remote plasma source and a subsequent reaction with organic molecule (alkanes and alkenes). The organic radicals (e.g., methyl CH3 radicals) can be exposed to the silicon and/or silicon germanium surfaces. After exposure to the organic radicals, the silicon and/or silicon germanium surfaces can be stable in air for a time period (e.g., days) with reduced surface oxidation such that the silicon and/or silicon germanium surfaces can be effectively protected from oxidation. As such, native surface oxide removal process before subsequent process steps can be eliminated.
