Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a powder plasma processing apparatus, and more particularly, to a powder plasma processing apparatus that uniformly processes a powder using a surface discharge plasma module.
- 2. Discussion of Related Art
- Plasma is an ionized gas. When a gas consisting of atoms or molecules is excited using energy, plasma consisting of electrons, decomposed gases, photons, and the like is generated. This plasma is widely used for surface treatment of objects to be processed (e.g., a substrate or the like).
- Pulsed corona discharge and dielectric film discharge are well known as techniques of generating plasma. Pulsed corona discharge is a technique that uses a high-voltage pulse power supply to generate plasma, and dielectric film discharge is a technique in which a dielectric is formed on at least one of two electrodes and a power having a frequency of several Hz to several tens of Hz is applied to the two electrodes to generate plasma.
- A dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) technique is employed as the representative dielectric film discharge. In a plasma processing apparatus using the DBD technique, when an object to be processed is disposed between plate electrodes and an inert gas is used to cause the dielectric film discharge to occur, plasma is generated and then brought into contact with a surface of the object to be processed, thereby processing the surface of the object to be processed.
- However, in the plasma processing apparatus described above, since the object to be processed is disposed between the plate electrodes, although it is not difficult to process one surface or both surfaces when the object to be processed is a plate-like member, it is difficult to process an entire surface of the object to be processed when the object to be processed is a powder. A plasma processing apparatus for processing the object to be processed is thus required when the object to be processed is a powder.
- A plasma processing apparatus of the prior art for processing an object to be processed when the object to be processed is a powder is disclosed in an application filed with the title “Tubular plasma processing apparatus” as Korean application No. 10-2012-0078234 by the present inventors. According to this literature, it is possible to perform surface treatment on a powder but difficult to perform uniform processing on the powder.

- In this case, each surface of the surface discharge plasma module is not perpendicular to a direction in which the powder is supplied. For example, an upper portion of the surface discharge plasma module is positioned below the powder supply unit, a lower portion of the surface discharge plasma module is positioned in a direction inclined toward one side from the upper portion, and the powder supplied through the powder supply unit falls down in the inclined direction of the surface discharge plasma module inclined toward the one side.
- According to an embodiment of the present invention, the surface discharge plasma module includes a high-voltage-applying electrode to which a high voltage is applied, an insulating layer surrounding the high-voltage-applying electrode, and a ground electrode disposed on the insulating layer. An alternating voltage is applied to the ground electrode and the high-voltage-applying electrode to generate the plasma around the ground electrode, and the powder is processed as it passes through the plasma.
- The high-voltage-applying electrode is in the form of a substrate, the ground electrode is in the form of a bar, and a plurality of the ground electrodes are positioned in parallel with each other. The ground electrodes are disposed in parallel with the direction in which the powder falls along the surface discharge plasma module. The powder is guided to fall down.
- According to another embodiment of the present invention, the surface discharge plasma module includes an insulating layer, a high-voltage-applying electrode to which a high voltage is applied and which is disposed on one surface of the insulating layer, and a ground electrode disposed on the other surface of the insulating layer, wherein an alternating voltage is applied to the ground electrode or the high-voltage-applying electrode to generate the plasma around the ground electrode or the high-voltage-applying electrode, and the powder is are by as it passes through the plasma.
- The ground electrode and the high-voltage-applying electrode are in the form of a bar, and a cross-sectional shape of the surface discharge plasma module is such that the ground electrode and the high-voltage-applying electrode are alternately disposed on respective positions.
- According to yet another embodiment of the present invention, the ground electrode is in the form of a bar and the high-voltage-applying electrode is in the form of a substrate, or the ground electrode is in the form of a substrate and the high-voltage-applying electrodes is in the form of a bar.
- In the embodiments described above, the same electrodes of the surface discharge plasma modules are disposed to face each other within the chamber.
- The apparatus includes an inclination adjusting unit configured to adjust an angle of inclination of the surface discharge plasma module to a predetermined angle within the chamber. The specific method in which the angle of inclination of the surface discharge plasma module is adjusted is not a characteristic of the present invention, and it will be recognized that various methods for adjusting the angle of inclination of the surface discharge plasma module may be employed for the present invention.

For example, the powder supply unit 111 may be an input entrance allowing a powder to be input into thechamber 110. - The surface discharge plasma module 120 generates the plasma for performing surface treatment on the powder. The surface discharge plasma module 120 is tubular and is disposed inside the
chamber 110. In this case, the surface discharge plasma module 120 is positioned below the powder supply unit 111. Accordingly, the powder input into thechamber 110 through the powder supply unit 111 falls toward the surface discharge plasma module 120. - A plurality of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 are arranged to be positioned in the internal space of the
chamber 110. Surfaces of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 face each other, and the surfaces of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 facing each other are spaced apart from each other. - The arrangement of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 described above causes the powder input into the
chamber 110 through the powder supply unit 111 to fall between the surface discharge plasma modules 120. In this case, the powder input through the powder supply unit 111 is dispersed between the surface discharge plasma modules 120. The dispersed powder is thus in contact with the plasma and the surface treatment can be uniformly performed. - The surface discharge plasma modules 120 are disposed such that they are not perpendicular to the powder supply direction within the
chamber 110. For example, an upper portion of each of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 may be positioned below the powder supply unit 111 and a lower portion thereof may be positioned in an inclined direction toward one side from the upper portion. In other words, the surface discharge plasma modules 120 are dispersed to be inclined toward the one side below the powder supply unit 111. - The surface discharge plasma modules 120 should be disposed such that they are not perpendicular to the powder supply direction as mentioned above. This is for the following reason. When the surface discharge plasma modules 120 are disposed perpendicular to the power supply direction, the powder supplied into the
chamber 110 through the powder supply unit 111 is not in contact with each surface discharge plasma module 120 and falls down fast vertically when input into thechamber 110, thereby shortening the time that the powder spends in contact with the plasma and causing difficulty in the surface treatment for the powder. - On the other hand, when the surface discharge plasma modules 120 are not disposed perpendicular to the power supply direction, the powder supplied into the
chamber 110 through the powder supply unit 111 falls onto the upper portions of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 and then slides along the surfaces of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 toward the lower portion of thechamber 110, thereby lengthening the time the powder spends in contact with the plasma and simplifying the surface treatment for the powder. -
FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating the surface discharge plasma module shown inFIG. 1 , andFIG. 3 is a cross-sectional diagram taken along the line A-A′ of the surface discharge plasma module shown inFIG. 2 . - Referring to
FIGS. 2 and 3 , each of the surface discharge plasma modules 120 includes a high-voltage-applyingelectrode 121 to which a high voltage is applied, an insulating layer 122 surrounding the high voltage applying electrode, and a plurality ofground electrodes 123 disposed on the insulating layer 122. - The high-voltage-applying
electrode 121 is electrically insulated within thechamber 110 by the insulating layer 122. For example, the high-voltage-applyingelectrode 121 may be in the form of a substrate. - For example, the
ground electrodes 123 may be in the form of a bar, may be positioned in parallel with each other on the insulating layer 122, and may be disposed in a direction in parallel with the direction in which the powder falls along the surface discharge plasma module 120. In other words, the longitudinal direction of theground electrodes 123 is in parallel with the falling direction of the powder to guide the powder to fall down, and theground electrodes 123 are arranged to be adjacent to each other at regular intervals on the insulating layer 122. - In this surface discharge plasma module 120, an alternating voltage is applied from a
plasma power supply 130 provided outside thechamber 110 to theground electrodes 123 and the high-voltage-applyingelectrode 121, thereby generating the plasma around theground electrodes 123. - In order to generate the plasma around the
ground electrodes 123, a plasma reaction gas is injected into thechamber 110 toward theground electrodes 123. The plasma reaction gas injected into thechamber 110 flows between the surface discharge plasma modules 120. For example, a gas containing oxygen such as O2, N2O, a gas containing fluorine such as CF4, SF6, a gas containing chlorine such as Cl2, BCl3, and an inert gas such as Ar, N2 may be used alone or in combination as the plasma reaction gas. - In order to inject the plasma reaction gas, the
chamber 110 includes a gas inlet and a gas outlet. - In the meantime, the apparatus of the present invention includes a plasma module inclination adjusting unit (not shown). The plasma module inclination adjusting unit is configured to adjust the angle of inclination of the surface discharge plasma module within the chamber. When the inclination angle between the surface discharge plasma modules is adjusted, the speed at which the powder falls down is adjusted. When the speed at which the powder falls down is adjusted, the time that the powder spends in contact with the plasma is controlled.
- According to the powder plasma processing apparatus of the embodiment of the present invention, the powder input into the
chamber 110 is dispersed and falls between the surface discharge plasma modules 120 of which surfaces are spaced apart from each other, the surface discharge plasma modules 120 are disposed at a predetermined angle below the powder supply unit 111, and the inclination angle of the surface discharge plasma module 120 is adjusted. The powder can thus be uniformly processed, and the time that the powder spends in contact with the plasma is controlled to increase the contact time between the plasma and the powder, thereby facilitating the surface treatment for the powder. -

The arrangement of the high-voltage-applying electrodes 221 and the ground electrodes 223 is such that the high-voltage-applying electrodes 221 and the ground electrodes 223 are alternately disposed on the respective positions when seen from the cross section of the surface discharge plasma module 220. - When the surface discharge plasma module 220 according to the embodiment of the present invention is disposed within the chamber, the same electrodes are disposed to face each other as shown in
