Abstract
A method of depositing nano-particles in a gas stream for efficiently depositing nano-particles by irradiating an electron beam on charged nano-particles in the stream of a first gas species containing the nano-particles, as well as a method of modifying the surface of the nano-particles in a gas stream by mixing them with the first gas species in a gas mixing chamber thereby activating the second gas species, intended for providing a method of depositing nano-particles and a method of modifying the surface thereof in a gas stream, capable of efficiently depositing the nano-particles in a charged state in a gas stream and modifying the surface of the nano-particles which are extremely sensitive to defects and impurities caused by large exposure ratio of surface atoms in a gas stream at a good controllability.
