New Ultrasonic Spray Nozzle Coating System for Biosensor
What is the ultrasonic spray nozzle?
Ultrasonic biosensor spraying is a key technology used in biosensor fabrication. It uses ultrasound to precisely spray liquid coatings onto the sensor surface, enhancing sensor performance. The following is a detailed introduction:
Operating Principle
Ultrasonic spraying technology uses a piezoelectric transducer to convert high-frequency sound waves into mechanical energy, atomizing the liquid coating into tiny droplets. These droplets are then evenly applied to the biosensor substrate surface via a carrier gas, forming a coating or thin film.
Technical Advantages
High Precision and Uniformity: Parameters such as droplet size, spray speed, and coating thickness can be precisely controlled to ensure uniform coating distribution across the biosensor surface, thereby improving sensor sensitivity and stability.
Clog-Free and High Performance: Ultrasonic spraying evenly disperses the coating, eliminating the clogging issues that can occur with traditional spraying. Furthermore, this technology offers high transmission efficiency, reducing coating waste and lowering production costs.
Material Compatibility: Ultrasonic spraying is compatible with a variety of substrates and coatings, including the sensitive elements and transducer materials commonly used in biosensors. It can evenly spray onto complex surfaces, meeting the diverse coating performance requirements of biosensors. Application Scenarios
Protein Detection Sensors: Titanium dioxide nanofibers and gold nanoparticles are deposited on the electrode surface to enhance the adsorption capacity and electrochemical activity of biomolecules, improving sensor sensitivity and detection stability.
Enzyme Sensors: Carbon nanotube and polymer composites are deposited to improve enzyme stability and response time to target molecules, extending sensor life.
DNA Sensors: Silver nanoparticles and titanium dioxide nanofibers are deposited to enhance the conductivity and surface activity of sensor electrodes, improving the sensitivity and specificity of DNA sequence detection.
Environmental Pollutant Detectors: Widely used to deposit zinc oxide nanostructures, they enhance the sensor's sensitivity and selectivity for heavy metal ions and organic pollutants, enabling real-time monitoring of environmental pollutants.

Advantages
Ultrasonic coating of silicon wafers using a painting equipment involves several steps and principles. Here’s an overview of the process:
1. Overview of Ultrasonic Coating
Ultrasonic coating utilizes high-frequency sound waves to atomize liquid photoresist into fine droplets. This technique ensures an even distribution of the coating material on the wafer surface.
2. Equipment Components
Ultrasonic Transducer: Converts electrical energy into ultrasonic waves, which create vibrations in the liquid.
Spray Nozzle: Designed to disperse the atomized photoresist onto the wafer.
Control System: Manages parameters like spray flow rate, frequency, and coating thickness.
3. Preparation Steps
Wafer Cleaning: Ensure silicon wafers are thoroughly cleaned to remove contaminants that could affect adhesion.
Photoresist Selection: Choose the appropriate type of photoresist based on the desired application and specifications.
4. Coating Process
Setup: Position the silicon wafer securely on the coating platform.
Loading Photoresist: Fill the spray gun with the selected photoresist material.
Ultrasonic Activation: Activate the ultrasonic transducer to generate high-frequency vibrations.
Spraying: The nozzle sprays the atomized photoresist onto the wafer. The ultrasonic waves help maintain a consistent droplet size for uniform coating.
Control Parameters: Adjust settings such as spray angle, distance from the wafer, and coating speed to achieve the desired thickness and uniformity.
5. Post-Coating Procedures
Drying: Allow the coated wafer to dry appropriately, either through natural evaporation or using a hot plate.
Baking: Perform soft baking to remove solvents and improve adhesion.
Inspection: Check the coated wafer for uniformity and defects.
6. Advantages of Ultrasonic Coating
Uniform Thickness: Ensures consistent coating across the entire wafer surface.
Reduced Material Waste: Efficient atomization minimizes excess photoresist usage.

Conclusion
Ultrasonic coating is an effective method for applying photoresist to silicon wafers, enhancing precision and efficiency in semiconductor manufacturing and related fields.
How do ultrasonic spray nozzles compare to traditional spray nozzles in terms of efficiency?
Ultrasonic spray nozzles offer several advantages over traditional spray nozzles in terms of efficiency. Here are some key points of comparison:
Atomization Efficiency: Ultrasonic spray nozzles are highly efficient in atomizing liquids into fine droplets.
Reduced Overspray: Traditional spray nozzles often generate a significant amount of overspray, which refers to the loss of liquid that doesn't reach the intended target.
Coating Quality: Ultrasonic spray nozzles are particularly advantageous in applications where a high-quality coating is required.
Material Savings: Due to their efficient atomization and reduced overspray, ultrasonic spray nozzles can help save on material costs.
Versatility: Ultrasonic spray nozzles can handle a wide range of liquids, including water-based solutions, solvents, suspensions, and viscous fluids.
It's worth noting that traditional spray nozzles have their own advantages in certain scenarios, such as high-flow applications or situations where larger droplets are desired. The choice between ultrasonic spray nozzles and traditional spray nozzles depends on the specific requirements of the application and the desired outcome in terms of efficiency, coating quality, and material savings.
