              Alcohol spraying device that can be used without touching Watanabe Manufacturing Co.

              Depending on the spraying mode, it can be used 400 to 800 times. Additional sterilizing solution can be purchased. Watanabe Manufacturing is involved in plastic molding. It launched the Liquid Jet in 2018 as its first in-house product. The company has sold 500 to 600 units so far, but with the spread of the new virus, alcohol for sterilization has become difficult to obtain, and customers have requested the sale of sterilizing liquid. With the cooperation of its business partners, the company secured enough sanitizing alcohol to cover the number of units sold. The product can be purchased from one unit. Senior Managing Director Yasuo Watanabe, who planned the product, says, "We want people who need the product to use it. The company will also consider expanding sales overseas.

                    Technology to etch Kai semiconductor with fluoroplastic instead of CFC gas

                    Technology to etch Kai semiconductor with fluoroplastic instead of CFC gas

                    The established technology will be used for dry etching, thin film formation and cleaning of silicon. Easy-to-handle gases such as argon and nitrogen are irradiated onto solid fluoropolymers to generate fluorine-containing gas. The gas is then used for plasma treatment. Using a proto device with electrodes developed for special equipment, the company irradiated nitrogen gas and etched a glass substrate, and was able to etch 40 nanometers in one minute. The company plans to achieve an etching speed of 200 nanometers for commercialization. Plasma is an unstable state in which electrons have been removed from molecules, and it modifies the surface of materials, improving adhesion and cleaning effects.

                      LEDs for Medical Germicidal Lamps from Nitride Semiconductor

                      LEDs for Medical Germicidal Lamps from Nitride Semiconductor

                      The inactivation of bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, influenza virus and norovirus has already been verified at the virus center of the Sendai Medical Center of the National Hospital Organization (Miyagino Ward, Sendai City). The company plans to test the system on a new type of corona within the next month. UV and mercury lamps are used as germicidal lamps in medical facilities. However, UV lamps have a short life span and are easily broken, and the Minamata Convention on Mercury, an international regulation, will ban the manufacture, import and export of mercury-based lighting from 2021. Against this background, the spread of high-output deep UV LEDs is expected in the future. Photo taken on March 30, 2020 (location unknown), credit: Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun / Kyodo News Images
