With increasing demand for Virtual Metrology (VM) and Advanced Process Control (APC) in semiconductor manufacturing, the importance of in-situ quantitative monitoring of process results has grown beyond in-situ qualitative monitoring. Particle Size Distribution (PSD) analysis of nanoparticles ranging from several to hundreds of nanometers (nm) in diameter offers a possible method for the quantitative monitoring of plasma processes. However, conventional Particle Beam Mass Spectrometer (PBMS) systems designed for PSD analysis require pressures greater than hundreds of millitorrs for operation, which limits their applicability to modern semiconductor processes that require a medium vacuum. We propose a new PSD measurement scheme to perform PSD analysis for medium-vacuum processes. The hardware configuration includes a Vacuum Ultraviolet (VUV) irradiation chamber and a mass-to-charge ratio (m/q) measurement device consisting of a stacked-quadrupole-based charged particle funnel and Quadrupole Mass Analyzer (QMA). With this configuration, a PSD measurement algorithm is developed using a direct photoionization model-based Non-negative Least Squares (NNLSQ) method with gradient descent optimization. The PSD is estimated from multiple m/q distributions measured under various VUV irradiation levels. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed m/q measurement scheme achieves an m/q selection efficiency of 21% and a resolution of ± 3% for singly charged spherical Sodium Chloride (NaCl) nanoparticles at the sizes of 5–50 nm, which follow Maxwellian velocity distributions at 20 °C in the free molecular regime. Furthermore, under ideal photoionization-dominant conditions for NaCl nanoparticles with randomly assigned initial charges, peak-normalized target monodispersed PSDs with distribution change slopes ranging from 0.4 to 0.5 nm1 can be estimated in the size range of 5–50 nm, with mode errors within 5.6% and Geometric Standard Deviation (GSD) errors within 2.0%.
随着半导体制造业对虚拟计量(VM)和先进过程控制(APC)的需求不断增加,过程结果的原位定量监测的重要性已经超越了原位定性监测。粒径分布(PSD)分析范围从几纳米到数百纳米(nm)直径的纳米颗粒提供了一种可能的方法来定量监测等离子体过程。然而,为PSD分析设计的传统粒子束质谱仪(PBMS)系统需要大于数百毫微的压力才能运行,这限制了它们在需要介质真空的现代半导体工艺中的适用性。我们提出了一种新的PSD测量方案,用于中真空过程的PSD分析。硬件配置包括真空紫外(VUV)辐照室和由堆积式四极杆带电粒子漏斗和四极杆质量分析仪(QMA)组成的质荷比(m/q)测量装置。在此基础上,采用梯度下降优化的基于直接光电离模型的非负最小二乘(NNLSQ)方法开发了PSD测量算法。PSD是根据在不同紫外辐射水平下测量的多个m/q分布估计的。仿真结果表明,所提出的m/q测量方案对粒径为5 ~ 50 nm的单电荷球形氯化钠(NaCl)纳米粒子的m/q选择效率为21%,分辨率为±3%,这些纳米粒子在20°C的自由分子区服从麦克斯韦速度分布。此外,在理想的光离优势条件下,随机分配初始电荷的NaCl纳米粒子,峰归一化目标单分散psd的分布变化斜率为- 0.4 ~ 0.5 nm - 1,尺寸范围为5 ~ 50 nm,模误差在5.6%以内,几何标准差(GSD)误差在2.0%以内。

Accurate prediction of aerosol charge distribution is crucial for aerosol size distribution measurements using electrical mobility spectrometers. The charge distribution of widely used bipolar diffusion aerosol charging is affected by the electrical mobility and mass of ions. In this study, we developed and evaluated a concentric cylindrical double dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) bipolar charger, and investigated the impact of measurement conditions on electrical mobility and mass of charging ions. The size-resolved chemical composition of ions produced by the DBD charger was analyzed using a high-resolution half-mini differential mobility analyzer coupled to an atmospheric pressure interface time-of-flight mass spectrometer. The effects of the discharge gas, carrier gas and relative humidity (RH) on ion properties were evaluated. Our results show that both discharge gas and carrier gas influenced the chemical composition of ions. The detected high-abundance ions were mainly originated from impurities in the carrier and discharge gases, or compounds used when manufacturing the system components. The ion mobility distribution varied with the type of carrier gas and its relative humidity, but was not sensitive to discharge gas or its flowrate. The measured charge distribution using the DBD charger was in a good agreement with Wiedensohler's approximation (Wiedensohler, 1988), and the theoretically predicted charge distribution, calculated from the measured ion properties, was also consistent with the experimental results. Only minor variations with a relative uncertainty of 12.1% and 9.5% for positive and negative particles, respectively, in singly charged particle fractions were expected among different measurement conditions. Despite a higher uncertainty likely introduced by using ambient air as the carrier gas, our work indicates that the newly developed DBD charger has the potential to be used as a bipolar charger under typical laboratory and ambient measurement conditions.
气溶胶电荷分布的准确预测是至关重要的气溶胶大小分布测量使用电迁移谱。广泛应用的双极扩散气溶胶充电的电荷分布受电迁移率和离子质量的影响。在这项研究中,我们开发和评估了同心圆柱形双介质阻挡放电(DBD)双极充电器,并研究了测量条件对充电离子的电迁移率和质量的影响。利用高分辨率半微型差分迁移率分析仪与大气压界面飞行时间质谱仪耦合,分析了DBD充电器产生的离子的尺寸分辨化学成分。考察了放电气体、载气和相对湿度对离子性能的影响。结果表明,放电气体和载气对离子的化学组成都有影响。检测到的高丰度离子主要来源于载体和放电气体中的杂质,或制造系统组件时使用的化合物。离子迁移率随载气类型和载气相对湿度的变化而变化,但对载气和载气流量不敏感。使用DBD充电器测量的电荷分布与Wiedensohler的近似(Wiedensohler, 1988)非常吻合,并且根据测量的离子性质计算的理论预测的电荷分布也与实验结果一致。在不同的测量条件下,单电荷粒子组分中正、负粒子的相对不确定度变化较小,分别为12.1%和9.5%。尽管使用环境空气作为载气可能会带来更高的不确定性,但我们的工作表明,新开发的DBD充电器在典型的实验室和环境测量条件下具有用作双极充电器的潜力。

Comparison of collision rate coefficient model predictions for different interaction strengths and temperatures 不同相互作用强度和温度下碰撞率系数模型预测的比较
IF 3.9 3区 环境科学与生态学 Q2 ENGINEERING, CHEMICAL Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-07-02 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaerosci.2025.106638

The formation of aerosol particles from the vapor phase is a common process in both natural and industrial systems, where bimolecular collisions drive the very first step of the phase transition. Widely used analytical models, such as the non-interacting hard-sphere (NHS) and central field (CF) models, offer fast and straightforward predictions for bimolecular collision rate coefficients. However, their accuracy varies depending on the interaction strength between the collision partners. The NHS model neglects long-range forces, leading to underperformance in strongly interacting systems, while the CF model assumes point-like particles, reducing its reliability in weakly interacting systems. The recently developed interacting hard-sphere (IHS) model (Yang et al., 2023) addresses these limitations by incorporating both long-range interactions and the finite sizes of the colliding species. Despite the widespread use of these models, there is limited guidance on their applicability across different systems. In this work, we systematically evaluated the NHS, CF, and IHS models and propose a practical rule of thumb for selecting the most appropriate model. We applied this rule of thumb to a range of collision systems with varying interaction strengths and validated it against classical atomistic force field molecular dynamics simulations. Our findings show that the IHS model most accurately reproduces molecular dynamics-derived collision rate coefficients and smoothly converges to the NHS and CF models in the weak and strong interaction limits, respectively. Moreover, we find that the simpler CF model is sufficiently accurate for most systems at ambient conditions. This work provides practical guidance for balancing accuracy and complexity when predicting collision rate coefficients.
从气相形成气溶胶颗粒在自然和工业系统中都是一个常见的过程,其中双分子碰撞驱动了相变的第一步。广泛使用的分析模型,如非相互作用硬球(NHS)和中心场(CF)模型,提供了快速和直接的双分子碰撞率系数预测。然而,它们的准确性取决于碰撞伙伴之间的相互作用强度。NHS模型忽略了远程力,导致在强相互作用系统中表现不佳,而CF模型假设了点状粒子,降低了其在弱相互作用系统中的可靠性。最近开发的相互作用硬球(IHS)模型(Yang et al., 2023)通过结合远程相互作用和碰撞物种的有限大小来解决这些限制。尽管这些模型被广泛使用,但是关于它们在不同系统中的适用性的指导是有限的。在这项工作中,我们系统地评估了NHS、CF和IHS模型,并提出了选择最合适模型的实用经验法则。我们将这一经验法则应用于一系列具有不同相互作用强度的碰撞系统,并通过经典原子力场分子动力学模拟验证了它。我们的研究结果表明,IHS模型最准确地再现了分子动力学推导的碰撞率系数,并分别在弱和强相互作用极限上平滑地收敛于NHS和CF模型。此外,我们发现较简单的CF模型对于大多数环境条件下的系统具有足够的精度。这项工作为预测碰撞率系数时平衡精度和复杂性提供了实用的指导。

In response to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, Ultraviolet (UV) air purifiers have emerged as a recommended mitigation strategy to deactivate airborne viruses and reduce infection spread within enclosed spaces. This paper focuses on developing a high fidelity computational methodology to investigate the efficacy of such devices. Large Eddy Simulations are used to resolve the turbulent flow inside the purifier with 2 UV lamps activated for specified operating conditions. A fully coupled, or two-way coupling approach, is compared with a computationally efficient one-way coupling method. Once the Eulerian flow reaches statistical convergence, time-averaged velocity and temperature distributions are extracted and provided to an Eulerian–Lagrangian framework to examine the turbulent dispersion of virus-laden droplets based on a frozen flow approach. These simulations incorporate an evaporation model for virus-laden droplets, highlighting the importance of accounting for this physical phenomenon. The majority of droplets exiting the purifier are identified as droplet nuclei containing non-volatile matter and virus copies. The survival rate of these expelled virus-laden droplets is determined using a UV radiation disinfection solver, developed and validated based on existing experimental studies. The resulting inactivation rate of the UV air purifier reaches 99%, highlighting its potential as an effective mitigation strategy.
为应对最近的COVID-19大流行,紫外线(UV)空气净化器已被推荐为一种缓解策略,以灭活空气中的病毒并减少感染在封闭空间内的传播。本文着重于开发一种高保真度的计算方法来研究这种设备的有效性。大涡流模拟是用来解决湍流内部的净化器与2个紫外线灯激活指定的操作条件。将完全耦合或双向耦合方法与计算效率高的单向耦合方法进行了比较。一旦欧拉流动达到统计收敛,提取时间平均速度和温度分布,并将其提供给欧拉-拉格朗日框架,以基于冻结流动方法检查携带病毒的液滴的湍流扩散。这些模拟结合了病毒液滴的蒸发模型,强调了解释这种物理现象的重要性。大多数从净化器流出的液滴被鉴定为含有非挥发性物质和病毒副本的液滴核。这些排出的携带病毒的飞沫的存活率是用紫外线辐射消毒溶剂确定的,该溶剂是根据现有的实验研究开发和验证的。由此产生的紫外线空气净化器的失活率达到99%,突出了其作为有效缓解策略的潜力。

The influence of geometry on particle capture efficiency in trap impactors 几何形状对捕集器粒子捕获效率的影响

In this study, trap impactors are used to collect polydisperse liquid droplets and are compared to the efficiency predicted by a conventional inertial impactor with excellent agreement. Polydisperse droplets are atomized and vary from 0.3μm to 10.5μm in diameter. Droplets are characterized after the impactor nozzle with an optical particle sizer to determine the size distribution and the corresponding distribution of Stokes numbers (St) at the tested flow rates. The trap ratio is defined as the difference between the trap and nozzle diameters divided by the total depth of the trap. To characterize the trap geometry, multiple traps are tested with varying trap ratios and demonstrate that decreasing the trap ratio results in a reduction in trap efficiency and an increase in wall losses. Specifically, a trap ratio of 1.00 resulted in a maximum trap efficiency of 94%, whereas a trap ratio of 0.27 had a maximum trap efficiency of 31%. Trap impactor design recommendations are made to maximize droplet collection inside the trap by increasing the trap ratio.
在本研究中,捕集器用于收集多分散液滴,并与传统惯性冲击器预测的效率进行了比较,结果非常吻合。多分散液滴被雾化,直径从0.3μm到10.5μm不等。用光学粒度仪对冲击喷嘴后的液滴进行表征,以确定在测试流速下的粒径分布和相应的斯托克斯数(St)分布。疏水阀的比率定义为疏水阀和喷嘴直径之差除以疏水阀的总深度。为了表征陷阱的几何形状,对多个陷阱进行了不同陷阱比率的测试,结果表明,降低陷阱比率会导致陷阱效率降低和壁面损失增加。具体来说,当捕集器比为1.00时,捕集器效率最高可达94%,而当捕集器比为0.27时,捕集器效率最高可达31%。提出了疏水阀冲击器的设计建议,通过增加疏水阀的比例来最大化疏水阀内的液滴收集。

Parabolic flow tube reactor for tandem DMA studies of cluster ion evaporation kinetics: Design, theoretical data inversion, and preliminary results for ionic liquid nanodrops 聚簇离子蒸发动力学的抛物流管反应器研究:设计、理论数据反演和离子液体纳米滴的初步结果

We seek to infer single-molecule evaporation rates from airborne ionic liquid clusters mobility-selected on a first DMA, flowing through a heated tube, with the ratio of product to parent fluxes determined on a second DMA. We connect theoretically the measured flux ratio to the reaction rate k via separation of variables, by assuming parabolic flow at large Peclet number (Pe). To minimize the non-parabolic entry flow region, we operate at moderate Reynolds numbers (∼150), resulting in a limited Pe. We identify practical conditions with small entry length and negligible finite-Pe corrections for the full (elliptic) non-reactive problem, which is numerically manageable despite the non-orthogonal eigenfunctions. We argue that moderate Pe corrections for the reactive problem are also small.

我们试图从空气中离子液体团簇的迁移率推断出单分子蒸发速率——在第一个DMA上选择,流经加热管,在第二个DMA上确定产品与母体通量的比例。我们通过分离变量,假设大佩莱特数(Pe)的抛物流,从理论上将测量的通量比与反应速率k联系起来。为了最小化非抛物线入口流区,我们在中等雷诺数(~ 150)下操作,导致有限的Pe。我们确定了具有小入口长度和可忽略的有限pe修正的全(椭圆)非反应问题的实际条件,尽管具有非正交特征函数,但在数值上是可管理的。我们认为反应性问题的中等Pe修正也很小。母种问题类似于无反应的Graetz问题,但包含了无量纲的一阶反应速率K作为自由参数。积种问题涉及一个额外的扩散比γ和非标准函数,由计算机程序Mathematica有效地计算。其他计算均采用对角矩阵,可覆盖所有相关的无量纲参数范围:1≤K≤100;1≤γ≤1.4;这些数值结果被浓缩到表格中,以便插值,从而可以从实验数据中快速推断出反应常数。该程序用于反演实验数据,得到直径小于3nm的离子液体EMI-FAP簇的挥发性。这种方法仅限于只有一种或两种反应产物形成的情况。

Low-cost PM sensors are widely used for air quality monitoring, yet their performance is influenced by many factors such as particle concentration and size, particle properties, relative humidity, and temperature etc. Laboratory and field calibrations are normally needed to correct for the potential bias of sensor readings. However, the effect of ambient wind velocity on the sensor flow rate and the particle sampling efficiency is rarely explored. This study conducted a fundamental study on the impact of horizontal wind velocity on the PM2.5 and PM10 sampling efficiency of low-cost PM sensors in a wind tunnel using NaCl and dust test particles. Results indicated that as wind velocity increased (0.35–3.26 m/s), the sampling flow rate and sampling efficiency of PM2.5 and PM10 decreased for both sensors. To calibrate the effect of the wind velocity on the sampling efficiency, a theoretical prediction model was developed with predicted results in good agreement with the experimental data. To mitigate the influence of horizontal wind velocity on the bias of the sensors, a Multi-Hole Inlet Cover (MHIC) was designed for the PMSX003, and test results showed significant improvement in PM2.5 accuracy while PM10 performance was also enhanced. This study demonstrates that horizontal wind velocity and sampling flow rate are critical factors affecting PM sensor accuracy and a validated model is useful for improving measurement reliability in high-wind conditions. It is also expected that the novel MHIC developed in this work could be used to improve the accuracy of monitoring data and expand its applicability across various environmental conditions.
低成本的PM传感器广泛用于空气质量监测,但其性能受到许多因素的影响,如颗粒浓度和大小、颗粒性质、相对湿度和温度等。通常需要实验室和现场校准来纠正传感器读数的潜在偏差。然而,环境风速对传感器流速和粒子采样效率的影响研究却很少。本研究利用NaCl和粉尘测试颗粒,在风洞中进行了水平风速对低成本PM传感器PM2.5和PM10采样效率影响的基础研究。结果表明:随着风速的增大(0.35 ~ 3.26 m/s),两种传感器对PM2.5和PM10的采样流量和采样效率均有所降低;为了校正风速对采样效率的影响,建立了理论预测模型,预测结果与实验数据吻合较好。为减轻水平风速对传感器偏置的影响,在PMSX003上设计了多孔进口盖(MHIC),测试结果表明PM2.5精度显著提高,PM10性能也有所提高。研究表明,水平风速和采样流量是影响PM传感器精度的关键因素,验证的模型有助于提高大风条件下PM传感器的测量可靠性。本研究开发的新型MHIC可用于提高监测数据的准确性,并扩大其在各种环境条件下的适用性。

Spurred by the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, there has been a considerable increase in research on human respiratory particle characterization using diverse methodologies. Our objective was to review previous methods used and to develop a highly controlled method for measuring human respiratory particle emissions during breathing, coughing, and voice production. A systematic search from three databases (Ovid Medline, Web of Science, and Scopus) was carried out in January 2024 according to the PRISMA 2020 principles. 77 original studies were included in the qualitative analysis. Considerable variation was noted in the methodology of previous particle measurement studies regarding setups, instrumentation, protocols, and reporting. We identified six key setups and discuss factors such as relative humidity, particle losses, and dilution for each.
We also present our novel setup, comprising a measurement chamber with particle-free air supply, funnel-type sample inlet, and real-time particle measurement instruments to investigate the absolute and time-resolved exhaled aerosol emission rates. The drying and dilution processes of particles, as well as particle losses, are well controlled. CO2 measurements are utilized for sample dilution and exhaled flow estimation. Optional sound pressure measurement provides calibrated absolute values. Fundamental frequency and electroglottography registration are also included as optional tools for studying voice production. Our setup reports accurate data on particle number concentration, mass concentration, particle number emission, and mass emission rates during breathing, coughing, speaking, and singing in the size range 0.004–10 μm, therefore succeeding in measuring ultrafine particles. We also report a positive effect of sound pressure and CO2 on particle emissions.
Enhanced methods for particle emission measurements improve our understanding of airborne transmission and human physiology, providing tools to minimize the risk of airborne transmission. We propose a set of key methodological parameters for improved reporting, including the documentation of dilution, particle drying, sampling losses and sound pressure.
在SARS-CoV-2大流行的推动下,使用各种方法对人类呼吸道颗粒特征的研究大大增加。我们的目标是回顾以前使用的方法,并开发一种高度控制的方法来测量人类呼吸,咳嗽和声音产生过程中的呼吸道颗粒排放。根据PRISMA 2020原则,于2024年1月对三个数据库(Ovid Medline、Web of Science和Scopus)进行了系统检索。定性分析纳入了77项原始研究。在以前的颗粒测量研究中,关于设置、仪器、协议和报告的方法存在相当大的差异。我们确定了六个关键设置,并讨论了诸如相对湿度、颗粒损失和稀释等因素。我们还介绍了我们的新装置,包括一个无颗粒空气供应的测量室,漏斗型样品入口和实时颗粒测量仪器,以研究绝对和时间分辨的呼出气溶胶排放率。颗粒的干燥和稀释过程以及颗粒损失都得到了很好的控制。二氧化碳测量用于样品稀释和呼出流量估计。可选的声压测量提供校准的绝对值。基本频率和声门电图登记也包括作为可选的工具来研究声音的产生。我们的装置报告了0.004-10 μm范围内呼吸、咳嗽、说话和唱歌过程中粒子数浓度、质量浓度、粒子数发射和质量发射率的准确数据,因此成功测量了超细颗粒。我们还报告了声压和二氧化碳对颗粒排放的积极影响。增强的颗粒排放测量方法提高了我们对空气传播和人体生理学的理解,为减少空气传播的风险提供了工具。我们提出了一套改进报告的关键方法参数,包括稀释、颗粒干燥、采样损失和声压的记录。

Quantification of the spatiotemporal heterogenous infection risk associated with respiratory virus-laden aerosols in an aircraft cabin in the context of airborne contagious diseases 在空气传播传染病的背景下,飞机机舱内与呼吸道病毒负载气溶胶相关的时空异质性感染风险的量化
IF 3.9 3区 环境科学与生态学 Q2 ENGINEERING, CHEMICAL Pub Date : 2025-09-01 Epub Date: 2025-04-22 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaerosci.2025.106594

A single-aisle aircraft cabin was investigated to quantify the infection risk by utilizing a spatiotemporal model for MV, DV, and DV with extra outlets. The ventilation effectiveness was also assessed. The HRE of the DV system was 68.9 % higher compared to the MV system. PD for MV configuration was lower compared to DV with a range of 0.34 %–6.75 %. On average, the DR for MV was found to be about 3.98 %, while for DV configuration, it was found to be approximately 2.59 %. The position of the index passenger impacts the dispersion of aerosols in the cabin, leading to varied infection risk levels throughout the cabin. The seat nearest to the index person in the same row possesses the highest risk of infection both from near-wall and near-aisle coughing in the MV configuration, as well as near-wall coughing in the DV configuration. However, the seat closest to the aisle in the same row had the highest risk of exposure to risk from near-aisle coughing in a DV configuration. Highly infectious zones were located in the same row seated with the index person and the back from the index person for MV near-wall and near-aisle injections. For the near-aisle coughing in the DV system, the risk was negligible for the first two columns containing the index passenger. Lower infection risk with higher HRE and dissatisfaction was found with DV configuration for the susceptible passengers. Wearing a highly efficient mask, such as an N95, significantly reduces the risk of infection in all cases.
以单通道飞机客舱为研究对象,利用时空模型对病毒、病毒和有额外出口的病毒进行量化。对通风效果也进行了评估。DV体系的HRE比MV体系高68.9%。与DV相比,MV配置的PD较低,范围为0.34% - 6.75%。平均而言,MV配置的DR约为3.98%,而DV配置的DR约为2.59%。指示乘客的位置会影响气溶胶在机舱内的分散,导致整个机舱的感染风险水平不同。同排最靠近指示人的座位感染近壁和近通道咳嗽的风险最高,MV配置中感染近壁咳嗽的风险最高,DV配置中感染近壁咳嗽的风险最高。然而,在DV配置中,同排最靠近过道的座位暴露于近过道咳嗽风险的风险最高。近壁和近通道注射MV时,高感染区位于与指示人和指示人后排同排。对于DV系统中的近通道咳嗽,前两列包含索引乘客的风险可以忽略不计。HRE越高,感染风险越低,易感乘客对DV配置不满意。佩戴N95等高效口罩可显著降低所有病例的感染风险。
