  • Publication number: 20250205713
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dielectric particle sorting apparatus. The dielectric particle sorting apparatus comprises: a chamber; a bottom electrode in the chamber; and a top electrode disposed at the top of the chamber so as to be spaced from the bottom electrode therein, wherein dielectric particles are positioned on the bottom electrode so that, when an alternating-current electric field is applied, the dielectric particles are electrified to be induced to flow upward, and thus the dielectric particles are sorted, and voltage and frequency are controlled so that the dielectric particles are controlled by particle size, weight, density, permittivity or surface area.

  • Patent number: 11776819
    Abstract: A point etching module using an annular surface-discharge plasma apparatus is disclosed. The point etching module using an annular surface-discharge plasma apparatus comprises: a plate-shaped dielectric; a circular electrode disposed on and in contact with the upper surface of the dielectric; an annular electrode disposed on and in contact with the lower surface of the dielectric and providing a gas receiving space for receiving gas; and a power supplier for applying high voltage between the circular electrode and the annular electrode, wherein when the application of the high voltage starts an electric discharge, filament type plasma is irradiated toward a substrate to be treated, by using plasma flowing in the center direction of the annular electrode from between the inner surface of the annular electrode and the lower surface of the dielectric.

  • Patent number: 11268191
    Abstract: An atomic layer polishing method is described. The method includes: scanning the surface of a specimen to measure a peak site on the specimen surface; spraying toward the measured peak site a gas containing an element capable of binding to a first atom, which is an ingredient of the material of the specimen to form a first reaction gas layer in which the first reaction gas binds to the first atom on the surface of the peak; and projecting ions of inert gas to the peak site on which the first reaction gas layer is deposited to separate the first atom bound to the first reaction gas from the specimen.
