The concept of clean room was not created by a single inventor, but gradually evolved with the development of science and technology. The design and use of clean rooms are mainly to control dust and pollutants in the environment in industries such as Semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and aerospace. In the 1950s, with the development of Electronics and semiconductor technology, specialized Clean Rooms began to appear.
Before that, early modular clean rooms can be traced back to hospital operating rooms in the 1930s, which were clean environments designed to reduce infections. With the advancement of science and technology, especially after World War II, the industry's demand for clean environments has increased, prompting the further development of clean room technology.
Therefore, the invention of the clean room can be seen as the result of the joint efforts of scientists and engineers in multiple fields, rather than being invented by a single person.
