Title: The Innovations of Tadashi Maegawa
Introduction
Tadashi Maegawa is a prominent inventor based in Kyoto, Japan. He has made significant contributions to the field of substrate processing, holding a total of 8 patents. His work has been instrumental in advancing technologies related to substrate processing apparatuses.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is a substrate processing apparatus that includes a substrate holder, a rotating mechanism, a processing liquid discharge unit, and a gas discharge unit. The processing liquid discharge unit is designed to discharge a liquid flow of a processing liquid, ensuring that the liquid flow comes into contact with a landing position in the rotation path of the peripheral portion of the upper surface of the substrate being rotated. Additionally, the gas discharge unit plays a crucial role by discharging a first gas flow of an inert gas from above toward a first position upstream from the landing position in the direction of rotation of the substrate. It also discharges a second gas flow of the inert gas from above toward a second position upstream from the first position in the same direction. Notably, the kinetic energy of the second gas flow is lower than that of the first gas flow, enhancing the efficiency of the substrate processing.
