Embodiment
Below, be used to implement form of the present invention with reference to description of drawings.
The 1st form
Fig. 1 to Fig. 4, showed the 1st form that is used to implement dielectric barrier discharge lamp of the present invention, Fig. 1 is the part section front view of dielectric barrier discharge lamp, Fig. 2 is the local disrumpent feelings front view of luminous tube, Fig. 3 shows the support portion of luminous tube and the local disrumpent feelings cross-section front view of power supply, and Fig. 4 is a side cut away view.In this form, dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL possesses gas-tight container 1, excimers and forms gas, internal electrode 2, outer electrode OE and air-flow and form device AB, is loaded by high-frequency lighting circuit HFI and lights a lamp.Moreover gas-tight container 1, excimers form gas and internal electrode 2, are assembled together in advance and constitute incorporate luminous tube LT.
<about luminous tube LT〉in this form, luminous tube LT except above-mentioned formation, also has a pair of power supply 3A, 3B and a pair of support portion 5,5 at its two ends.
(about gas-tight container 1) gas-tight container 1 is made by the material of ultraviolet permeability, is formed with elongated discharge space 1a in inside.For example, can be made as the closed at both ends of elongated pipe and form the structure of columned discharge space 1a in inside.In addition, the 2nd form is such as described later, also can be made as by form the structure of elongated discharge space 1a ' cylindraceous with the closed at both ends of dual elongated pipe and in inside.As the material of ultraviolet permeability, generally make of synthetic quartz glass.But in the present invention, as long as have permeability with respect to the ultraviolet ray of the wavelength that will utilize, constituting with any material can.
In addition, gas-tight container 1 uses in order to allow that a plurality of dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL that will be used to guarantee desired ultraviolet ray amount dispose in parallel with narrower and small interval, the good straight tube of linearity preferably, but slight curvature any have no relations.In fact, when forming elongated pipe, be easy to produce bending a little,, can form about maximum 1mm or its following bending for example with respect to the about 1200mm of total length.But, the bending of this degree, owing to be straight tube substantially, so allowed.
(generating gas about excimers) generates gas as excimers, can use one or more mixing of xenon (Xe), krypton (Kr), argon (Ar) or helium rare gas such as (He), perhaps rare gas halide, for example XeCl, KrCl etc.Moreover, under the situation of enclosing rare gas halide, also can enclose rare gas and fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) or iodine halogens such as (I), generate halide in the inside of gas-tight container 1 then.In addition, according to circumstances, except generating gas, excimers allow that also mixing does not generate the gas of excimers, for example neon (Ne) etc.
(about internal electrode 2) internal electrode 2 clips the wall of gas-tight container 1 and relatively sets with outer electrode OE.But internal electrode 2 can also be any one in following two kinds of sample attitudes, i.e. the sample attitude of being enclosed in the mode in the discharge space 1a that is exposed to gas-tight container 1, and the sample attitude that for example is provided in the outside of discharge space 1a in the inboard of gas-tight container 1.Under the situation of the latter's sample attitude, for example gas-tight container 1 is a double-sleeve structure, and internal electrode 2 is set along the wall of the tubular of the central shaft side that is formed on gas-tight container 1.Thereby in the present invention, so-called internal electrode 2 is construed as when when gas-tight container 1 is seen in the outside, relatively is provided in the electrode of the inboard of gas-tight container 1.
As can understanding from above explanation, in the present invention, internal electrode 2, be with on the roughly total length of the inside of gas-tight container 1 at its tube axial direction, be to produce the electrode that the mode of dielectric barrier discharge sets on the whole effective length of lamp, preferably so long as along the long electrode of tube axial direction, all the other are which type of formation can.Moreover in Fig. 1, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, internal electrode 2 has omitted diagram.
Suitable configuration example to internal electrode shown in Figure 22 describes.Promptly, this internal electrode 2 is following structures, promptly, with the direction of principal axis decentralized configuration of a plurality of independently mesh-like part 2b along gas-tight container 1, and be formed on the mesh-like of the structure that sets with leaving the space on every side respectively, connect simultaneously and form incorporate structure, and set with the state of the inside that is inserted into gas-tight container 1 via linking portion 2a.By using such internal electrode 2, can relatively increase ultraviolet generation.Moreover mesh-like part 2b can be continuous with respect to Zhou Fangxiang, also can separate.
Thereby, in the present invention, be under the situation of mesh-like at internal electrode 2, its mesh-like part 2b specifically for example can be ring-type, helical form or coiled type, perhaps mesh-shape etc.
Secondly, supporting construction and the electric power-feeding structure when internal electrode 2 being provided in the inside of the gas-tight container of being made by quartz glass 1 describes.For internal electrode 2 is sealed in the gas-tight container 1, as shown in Figure 2, can adopt the hermetically-sealed construction that has used sealing metal paper tinsel 1b1.Promptly, utilize welding to wait the end 2c of the linearity that will stretch the two ends of the linking portion 2a of internal electrode 2 and form to be connected on the sealing metal paper tinsel 1b1, then after inserting internal electrode 2 in the gas-tight container 1, the quartz glass of heated end portion makes it become soft state, clamping sealing above sealing metal paper tinsel 1b1 then.So, form closure 1b in the end of gas-tight container 1, thereby internal electrode 2 is supported on the position of regulation.
( power supply 3A, 3B) power supply 3A, 3B is the part that is configured for providing with respect to internal electrode 2 feeder ear of the necessary electric current of dielectric barrier discharge.And power supply 3A, 3B are respectively bar-shaped, and the inner is welded on the molybdenum foil 1b1 in the closure 1b that is embedded in the two ends that are formed at gas-tight container 1, and cardinal extremity is outstanding to the tube axial direction of outside from the closure 1b at the two ends that are formed on gas-tight container 1.In addition, power supply 3A, 3B, the inside in aftermentioned support portion 5 is connected on the supply lines 4 by riveted joint respectively.Moreover supply lines 4 extends out from the output of high-frequency lighting circuit HFI described later.
(support portion 5) support portion 5 as shown in Figure 3, possesses the cover body of round-ended cylinder shape 5a, dead ring 5b and hold-down arm 5c is arranged.Cover body 5a, the end of encirclement luminous tube LT.And, have the inserting hole 5a1 of supply lines 4 in the bottom.Dead ring 5b is provided in the openend of cover body 5a, thus the fixing end of gas-tight container 1.In addition, cover body 5a can also be made as the metallic that covers inner face with insulator in addition as requested with any one formation in metal and the insulator.Hold-down arm 5c, the top is outstanding to figure from the side of cover body 5a, touches with hold-down arm 5c luminous tube LT is being installed under the state of looking on the arm 8 shown in Figure 1 on the standing part that figure do not show on cover body 5a.Moreover, look for an arm 8, extend to the end direction of gas-tight container 1 from the tube axial direction two ends of outer electrode OE, thus the installation site of regulation luminous tube LT and gas-tight container 1.In addition, hold-down arm 5c can form with in metal and the insulator any one, can be used as requested in addition in the centre to be filled with the structure of insulant and to be formed on the structure that insulate between itself and the installation site.So, by cover body 5a is the metallic that insulate system or cover with insulator, perhaps hold-down arm 5c is made as and the installation site between insulated structure, perhaps will look for an arm 8 self maybe this to be looked for insulation between an arm 8 and the support portion 5, can suppress because and power supply 3A, 3B between produce corona discharge, and the situation that the ultra violet radiation that comes from dielectric barrier discharge lamp is reduced.
<about outer electrode OE〉outer electrode OE, on the part of effective length of lamp at least, outside at gas-tight container 1 sets along the mode of extending with gap of its tube axial direction with tight contact or maintenance appropriateness, simultaneously relative with internal electrode 2, cooperation by outer electrode OE and internal electrode 2 plays a role, and makes in the discharge space 1a of gas-tight container 1 to produce at least a dielectric barrier discharge that wall is a medium with gas-tight container 1.
In addition, outer electrode OE can be to possess the formation of rigidity and possess in the flexible formation any one.Possessing under the situation of rigidity, is the bigger such outer electrode OE of diagram that is bulk of thermal capacitance that is made by conductive metal.Thereby,, can as required the parts that are called lamp body directly be used as outer electrode in the past.The outer electrode OE that the thin plate by aluminum that at this moment, must employing will in the past use is made is clamped in the structure between lamp body and the gas-tight container 1.In addition, in order to cool off gas-tight container 1 part in the zone that produces dielectric barrier discharge, externally set cooling device 9 on the electrode OE.At this moment, cooling device 9 can be to constitute arbitrarily, but preferably will be at the cooling water channel peripheral hardware of internal circulation cold-producing medium externally on the electrode OE, perhaps forms inwardly to be provided with.And then outer electrode OE can be any one state of continuous planar or mesh-like.Moreover, so-called mesh-like, what say is mesh-shape, punching shape, clathrate etc.
<air-stream generating device AB〉air-stream generating device AB is the device that traverses front face ground formation air-flow along the tube axial direction of gas-tight container 1.The air-flow that forms, so long as used the air-flow of environmental gas such as atmosphere and do not considered that how environmental gas has used the clean gases such as air-flow of inert gas, air-flow can arbitrarily.But the air-flow of formation must be to stop speed and the flow of impurity attached to the particularly lip-deep degree at the position relative with shone thing of gas-tight container 1.
In addition, air-stream generating device AB can be with respect to the relation configuration of single luminous tube LT with 1 pair 1.But, as required, also allow with respect to being adjacent to side by side a plurality of luminous tube LT of configuration, with single air-stream generating device AB as the shared device of each dielectric barrier discharge lamp is set.
And then air-stream generating device AB both can be to be combined in the luminous tube LT of dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL or the formation on the outer electrode OE, also can be the formation of separating.The latter is suitable for the above-mentioned situation that sets the formation of single air-stream generating device AB with respect to a plurality of luminous tube LT.
Again and then, air-stream generating device AB, can be possess that gas blows out structure, gas suction structure or gas blows out and the formation of gas suction structure in any one.In addition, can also be that tubular axis along gas-tight container 1 sets that long single gas blows out or the structure of gas suction structure body, perhaps set that a plurality of gases blow out or the structure of gas suction structure body etc. along the tubular axis of gas-tight container 1.
Illustrated air-stream generating device AB is to make gas discharge pipe 10 in the longitudinal extension of gas-tight container 1, as shown in Figure 4, forms a plurality of gases with proper spacing and blow out hole 11 on the side relative with gas-tight container 1 of gas discharge pipe 10.Moreover, also gas discharge pipe and outer electrode OE can be formed.In addition, replacing gas to blow out the hole can also form elongated gas and blow out slit.And then, replace making the longitudinal extension of gas discharge pipe along gas-tight container 1, can also be with of the tube axial direction assortment of a plurality of gas discharge pipes along gas-tight container 1.At this moment, a plurality of gas discharge pipes with respect to the tubular axis of gas-tight container 1 roughly the mode of quadrature be configured.
<high-frequency lighting circuit HFI〉high-frequency lighting circuit HFI, additional high voltage between the internal electrode 2 of dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL and outer electrode OE loads dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL and lights a lamp.In addition, high-frequency lighting circuit HFI constitutes based on shunt transformer, its high frequency output, be respectively that its hot side is attached on a pair of power supply 3A, the 3B of the luminous tube LT among the dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL via supply lines 4,4, low potential side is attached on the outer electrode OE in addition.
The action of<dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL〉dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL, a because side of the high frequency output of high-frequency lighting circuit HFI, for example the high-pressure side output is via supply lines 4,4 are connected a pair of power supply 3A that electrode 2 is internally derived to the outside, on the 3B, the opposing party, for example low pressure (ground connection) side output is connected on the end of outer electrode OE, therefore when input power supply that the figure that opens high-frequency lighting circuit HFI does not show, produce high frequency, its high frequency output is attached to internal electrode 2, and between the wall of gas-tight container 1 outer electrode OE on the other side.Its result produces dielectric barrier discharge in the inside of gas-tight container 1.Utilizing this dielectric barrier discharge is the vacuum-ultraviolet light of centre wavelength by the excimers radiation of xenon with 172nm.Vacuum-ultraviolet light is because the wall quilt that sees through gas-tight container 1 to the outside derivation, therefore can utilize it according to various purposes.
In addition, when dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL lit a lamp, air-stream generating device AB moved, thereby traversed near the mode of air-flow position below passing through among the figure of gas-tight container 1 of gas-tight container 1, in at least effectively long generation on the whole of dielectric barrier discharge lamp EXL, thereby form the air screen.Its result because the surface of gas-tight container 1 is protected by the air screen protection, has suppressed the surface attachment of impurity to gas-tight container 1.
