Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To accumulate liquefied ozone of a high concentration. SOLUTION: A cold tray 2a of the same constitution as a liquefied ozone generator 2 is provided in a flow path between a fine particle removing filter 7 and a flow control valve 8. The cold trap 2a is cooled by means of a trap chamber 29, a freezer 33, a cold head 32 and a metal block 31 for cooling. The metal block 31 is controlled by a temperature controller 34 comprising a temperature sensor and a heater, and the freezer 33 is controlled by a compressor. An ozone-containing oxygen gas is introduced into a trap chamber 29 from the filter 7. The freezer 33 and the controller 34 set the temperature of the chamber 29 higher than the temperature of an ozone chamber 9. Thus, the trap chamber 29 liquefies or solidifies an impurity gas of comparatively higher temperature than zone to be liquefied.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem that there is a risk of explosion of ozone gas with the increase of the storage quantity of liquefied ozone in the case of generating and storing the liquefied ozone in an ozone chamber by introducing an ozone-containing gas in the ozone chamber and cooling the inside of the ozone chamber with a refrigerator. SOLUTION: A temperature detection type liquid level detector 8 for detecting the temperature of the liquefied ozone at the maximum storage quantity position is provided and detects that the storage quantity of the liquefied ozone reaches the maximum storage quantity position by the change of the detected temperature by the liquid level detector 8. The liquid level detector includes also a structure for detecting the maximum storage quantity position and plural storage positions by utilizing the difference of absorbance, refraction factor and light reflection position on the liquefied ozone surface between the liquefied ozone and unliquefied ozone gas and gaseous oxygen.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase the liquid ozone generating and storing capacities of a liquid ozone manufacturing device while the safety with respect to the explosion of liquid ozone is secured. SOLUTION: An ozone-containing oxygen gas is distributed to divided chambers 9a-9c through a valve 8 and the chambers 9a-9c generate and store liquid ozone. A left mixed gas which is not used for the generation of the liquid ozone is discharged through another valve 10. At the time of utilizing the generated liquid ozone as a high-concentration ozone gas, the liquid ozone is vaporized by raising the controlled temperature of a metallic block 28 for cooling by closing the valves 8 and 10 and opening a valve 15.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To vaporize liquid ozone except an ozone chamber part. SOLUTION: A slit body 33 is arranged at the central part in an ozone chamber and the ozone chamber 3 is cooled to 70-95 K liquefaction temperature by a cryogenic energy-storing block 8 installed around the outer periphery of the ozone chamber 3. The hole diameter of the slit body 33 is formed in such a hole diameter as not to drop a liquid ozone by the surface tension of liquid ozone. Consequently, the liquid ozone 21 is retained in the hole of the slit body. A reflector 32 for reflecting a laser beam from a heat source 31 is arranged at the lower part of the slit body 33. The liquid ozone 21 exposed from the hole of the slit body 33 is heated and vaporized by using the laser beam reflected from the reflector 32. The vaporized ozone is transported through a process line 12 to a reaction chamber 14. Since the upper part of the ozone chamber 3 being a liquefaction part and the lower part of the ozone chamber 3 being a vaporization part can be independently controlled in the structure, a continuous operation is made possible.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a storage method and storage device for a high concentration ozone-containing gas and a method and device for oxidation processing, which are capable of preventing the decrease of the concentration of ozone gas and effectively utilizing the storing oxidation power. SOLUTION: The high concentration ozone-containing gas is stored by a process for adsorbing high purity ozone gas on a target substrate as solid ozone by cooling the target substrate composed of a material arranged in a vacuum chamber, inert to ozone and having good heat conductivity and supplying the high purity ozone gas on the target substrate. The storage and fixed ozone is emitted as ozone beam toward the surface of a sample to be oxidized by the laser beam irradiation or the heating of the surface.
