Abstract
A process for preparing mist, which includes micro/nano solids or liquids, and a process for forming new materials by mist gas discharge, and also an apparatus for forming new materials. The advantages are: as compared to common gases, mists exhibit broader selection range of elements and compounds and broader range of suitable temperature and pressure. Due to the presence of mist AI(m), in a sealed container, the concentration of A in unit volume of mist is far higher than the concentration of A in unit volume of gas. Under specific conditions, the physical/chemical reactions can be carried out more easily, and new materials can be formed with higher efficiency.
Claims4
A process for generating mist and forming new material or modifying a material by mist gas discharge, the process comprising the steps of:
- 1) providing a first container, the pressure P and the temperature T in the first container or some specific region of a part of the first container being settable;
- and providing a material to be modified or a device, wherein a new material that is to be formed is placed R within the device, placing the material to be modified or the device in the first container;
- 2) introducing a pretreating gas, and generating gas discharge to pretreat the device or the material to be modified;
- 3) heating or cooling the device or the material to be modified in the first container to a designated temperature and holding at the designated temperature;
- 4) providing a second container, in which a solid or liquid elementary substance and/or compound is provided therein, the second container being placed inside or outside the first container;
- 5) generating mist as follows:
- altering the temperature and/or pressure in the second container to gasify the solid or liquid elementary substance and/or compound in the second container and make the gasified solid or liquid elementary substance and/or compound in the second container enter into the first container to generate mist, the mist formed by either raising the pressure P of at least the specific region of the part of the first container to be more than P0 while maintaining the temperature T of the first container at T0 or lowering the temperature T of the first container to be less than T0 while maintaining the pressure P of the first container at P0, where P0 is saturated vapor pressure of the solid or liquid elementary substance and/or compound in the second container at temperature T0, and the mist being dispersed in the first container or at least in the specific region of the part of the first container;
- 6) turning on a power supply equipment, generating mist gas discharge between two electrodes in the first container to form new material in the device or to modify the material by the mist gas discharge.
