An apparatus was used in which an aluminum-based organometallic supply device 3 was provided between the gas supply device 2 and the reaction chamber 7 and the evacuation device 6 were connected.

従来の窒素”源とアルミニウム系有機金属を用いた窒化
アルミニウム膜の合成方法には以下のような欠点、問題
があった。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The conventional method of synthesizing an aluminum nitride film using a nitrogen source and an aluminum-based organic metal has the following drawbacks and problems.
(1) アルミニウム系有機金属は空気中で容易に酸化

要とした。そのリークフリー装置の一例として有機金属
の周辺をさらに容器でおおい、その容器中を窒素ガスで
充満しておくシステムも存在した。(1) Aluminum-based organic metals have the property of being easily oxidized in the air, and if a large amount leaks, spontaneous combustion or explosion may occur. Therefore, a leak-free device was required that would prevent air from coming into contact with the aluminum-based organic metal. As an example of such a leak-free device, there was also a system in which the area around the organic metal was further covered with a container, and the container was filled with nitrogen gas.

た。At the same time, a leak check must be performed every time, which not only takes time and effort, but also requires a highly sensitive helium leak detector and high-purity helium-11 to prevent malfunctions caused by moisture in the atmosphere. It was. And the costs for these were as high as the equipment. (2) Aluminum-based organic metals have the property of reacting violently with water, generating hydrocarbon gas, and igniting. Therefore, the water in the reaction system had to be sufficiently removed. For example, when removing moisture using hydrogen gas, the flow rate was 50 cc/win for about one week.
