CLICK: Zoom In/OutParticle deposition (fixing) technology is required in manufacturing process of functional substrates utilizing nanomaterial property. Normal painting is the easiest in conventional methods to form particle deposition on a substrate. However, there is a serious problem that nanomaterial properties are lost due to aggregation in the dry process of solvent.
Particle Deposition System PDS series
Particle deposition (fixing) on a substrate without aggregation is realized by electro-spray of nanosuspension. The system is possible to make particle deposition on partial or general surface by adjusting spray position on a substrate using an electric stage.
The system is possible to make a patterning by using mask with holes.
It is available not only for particle deposition but for liquid layer like spin-coater.
High voltage unit, electric-stage unit, controller, and computer is contained in the system.
Applications

Basic principle of
particle deposition of nanomaterials without aggregation

Homogeneous fixing nanomaterials on a substrate is required in the manufacturing process using nanomaterials and in the case of nanomaterials observation by SEM/TEM.
Particle deposition technology is solved these problems by applying an electro-spray.
Principle
1. |
Applying voltage between nanosuspension into a nozzle and a substrate, the liquid surface at the tip of the nozzle is changed as cone shape by Coulomb force, and thin jet is form at the top of the cone shape by the reason that the Coulomb force is bigger than surface tension of the liquid.
|
|---|---|
2. |
The jet divides many small droplets due to repulsive force of homopolar electric charge on the jet surface.
|
3. |
The solvent of droplets is vaporized, then charged single nanomaterial makes a flight in the atmosphere along an electric line bound for a substrate.
|
4. |
Nanomaterials is fixed on a substrate so that the flying single nanomaterial avoids previous reached nanomaterilal due to repulsive electrostatic force.
|
Permittivity of solvents
Bigger number of permittivity is better in the view of fine electro-spray formation. Permittivity of sample solution determines by kinds and concentration of solvent and involved nanomaterials.
