Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in a vacuum environment, especially in a high vacuum, gas molecules move in the form of a molecular flow, and the direction of their movement is random, resulting in the movement of particles in the environment without uniform directionality, so it is difficult to monitor particles, and There are currently no particle counters designed for use in vacuum
The problem with the detection unit in the currently used air-borne particle counter is that the measurement area is small, generally less than 10 5 On the order of cubic microns, the probability of detecting randomly moving particles in a high vacuum environment is very small, which cannot be used for particle monitoring in a vacuum environment

Abstract

The present invention relates to a vacuum particle counter, which comprises a casing, which has a measuring hole penetrating through the casing along the z direction, and inside the casing is fixed a light incident part, which is used to emit laser light and form a flat-top beam with uniform distribution of cross-sectional light intensity, located at One side of the measurement hole includes lasers, incident optical element groups and incident diaphragms arranged in sequence along the x direction. The incident optical element group includes focusing lenses, uniform light rods and lens groups arranged in sequence along the x direction; the light detection part collects Scattered light formed by the flat-hat beam being scattered by particles, and the number of particles is detected according to the collected scattered light; the light exit part is located on the other side of the measurement hole opposite the light entry part, and is used to absorb the laser light emitted by the light entry part The portion not scattered by particles. The vacuum particle counter of the present invention adopts a special incident light path including a homogenizing rod, so that the incident laser light forms a flat-top beam with uniform cross-sectional light intensity, which can increase the effective measurement area.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of dust-free processing and manufacturing and vacuum technology, and more particularly relates to a vacuum particle counter. Background technique [0002] Dust-free manufacturing has strict cleanliness requirements for the processing environment. For example, cleanliness level 10 requires that the number of particles larger than 0.1 microns in the environment is less than 10,000 per cubic meter. In some applications, such as high-energy particle accelerators , Chip manufacturing in the semiconductor industry, and thin-film panel production and assembly in the photovoltaic and display industries also involve a vacuum environment, so there are also dust-free requirements for the entire vacuum process involved in manufacturing and processing. Air-borne particle counters are generally used to monitor the number of particles of different sizes in the atmospheric environment. The principle is to collect the air in the envir...
