DESCRIPTION
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The technical field of invention is related to material production at Nano-scale utilizing acoustic wave energy (microwave).
TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
Nano technology is increasingly developing. In order to be able to use it, we have to produce materials at Nano scale. Currently, Nanoparticle production is possible through the following methods: vapor condensation, chemical synthesis, making use of supercritical fluids by using bacteria and site demolition.
The above-mentioned methods have some disadvantages; for instance in most of the methods we are able to perform processes on special kind of material. Moreover, performing those operations is really costly. In some cases, production operations cause the other available elements in the material to be destroyed or a product with a low purity is obtained. So, in Nano technology depending on the segment size, a little impurity in a segment affects the entire system. As an example, nowadays the length of transistor has reached 10 Nanometer. Therefore, a little impurity in it decreases system efficiency. In most of the industries like petroleum or mining industry, segregation, enrichment and detection of available materials is required but presently there is no method to do it. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Generally, up until now Nano production has been done by utilizing the method not by using a machine. The existing methods are able to produce a limited range of elements. For example: the basic carbonic element, which are divided into the following two groups:
1- Producing Nano material through using physical collision: the material is crashed by physical stroke.
2- Producing Nano material in a chemical way: applying chemical processes, Nano material is produced.
In order to produce Nano material some methods which have many limitations are employed, too.
On the other hand, microwave and ultrasonic waves are mostly used to transfer data between radars and satellites or to image and measure thickness.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Gravity between the molecules of one element contains a certain amount of energy and each element shows reaction against specific frequency wave, so by creating internal tension among the particles, it is possible to crash one of its materials and break the particle into pieces. Therefore, using this device we can do the segregations which are very strong and it is impossible to do them by other methods because microwave waves have a plenty of energy and when made as voice stress, they can crash the hardest adherence between material particles.
However, considering its limited power and sectional tension, no change will be engendered in the molecular bond of the substance. This device will generate and detect modern and complementary method in Nano material production which is able to crash substance particles and segregate their molecules.
Particle at Nanometer scale can be easily scattered in the environment. Each substance owns a particular molecular mass and its parts which have the fewest number of differences in molecular mass and acoustic signal reflection. In this device, the difference becomes bigger by wave radiation and the particles are separated into the constituent elements of the primary substance. Increasing distance among the molecules of various elements and their settlement at different distances of acoustic source causes material segregation and detection. Appling voice stress method, the device can crash, segregate, purify, and detect different elements inside material bulk and produce Nano material.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Fig.l In this figure, the main body of the first device is observed and some fans 2 have been installed on its wall to exchange temperature. Along with the main body a detection tunnel 3 which is a place for produced material accumulation exists. Under the device, there are some legs 4 to adjust the height and balance the machine.
Fig. 2 The device front view in which the main body 5 is visible.
Fig. 3 The device rear view in which cooling radiators 6 are visible. Fig. 4 This is the top view of the device in which the radiator 6 that is linked to the cooling engine 7 is seen. From the other side of the cooling engine, a tube 8 which is responsible for retaining temporal balance is wrapped around detection tunnel.
The cooling system prevents temperature to reach melting point by fluid rotation without entering into the system in order to avoid the extreme rise of temperature.
In the middle of the device, a magnetron engine 9 exists which transmits microwave pulses into the tunnel.
Detection tunnel is divided into two parts including crashing container 10 and separating tunnel 11 which are separated from each other by a discriminant door 12 in the first stage the discriminant door is shut and the device crashes particle sizes at Nanometer scale through transmitting strong pulses. Following that, after opening discriminant door, the device sends weak pulses that are different from the previous stage and so materials enter the separating tunnel. Regarding the difference between molecular mass of materials, the particles distinctly gather along the separating tunnel and make the process of removing easy.
Fig. 5 It illustrates the side cutting of the device in which power supply 13 is observed above the device. Over the crashing container there is a material loading funnel 14 through which the cases enter into the device and after loading, the door 15 is shut. Also, cooling system tubes 16 are visible along the detection tunnel body. At the top of the crashing container a tube 17 that exits the weather inside the container and enters neutral gas exists. This is to make sure there is no humidity in the crashing container.
At certain distances, on the bottom of separating tunnel, there are segregating lines 18 to determine the border between each element. At the end, door 19 at the top of the separating tunnel is wide opened to bring the material out.
Fig. 6 In this figure the detection tunnel cross-sectional cutting which its forming layers are visible is seen. In crashing container section, the body layers are installed in a way that it can reflect the waves in the container. These layers are made up of aluminum 20, lead 21, cooling tube 22, sponge 23, lead 24 and aluminum 25, respectively. In separating tunnel section, the body layers are installed in a way that they can absorb the waves. These layers include glass 26, tube 27, sponge 28, lead 29 and aluminum 30, respectively.

9. The possibility of substance internal fracture to stop growth for instance to prevent sprouting of plant seeds (if there is a need to consume the seed before sprouting)
10. The possibility of usage for sterilization and removing microbe.
A METHOD FOR USING THE INVENTION
First, the particles of the considered substance must be crashed at a scale of less than 2 cm Then we enter them into the first container. The internal side of the system is transmitted for performing the actions and doing the necessary controlling by computer. The device makes the element warm by sectional and powerful radiations of voice stress and because of different excitations of these materials compared to each other and a fracture between them the substances are taken apart. Next, the Nano particles existing in the atmosphere of the first container are scattered and find it possible to enter the second container. By weak and constant radiation, the available particles are thrown forward and separated because of their different molecular mass of each element. The heavier elements settle in shorter distance and the light ones in a farther distance.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION
For many industries there is a need for separation, enrichment and detection of the existing material such as petroleum or mining industry. Using this device we can produce many Nano materials including Nano carbon, zinc, ceramic, magnesium, aluminum, titanium, and silver.
This device can also be used to crash and separate the materials which are difficult to be segregated, when direct contact with the material is impossible, or to detect and separate the mixed elements inside a substance like sensitive and weak elements existing inside mineral stones and to find information about their rate. Other applications of this device include removing the bacteria and germs or preventing seed growth by making a fracture among the molecules.
