【発明の詳細な説明】 〔発明の目的〕 (産業上の利用分野) 本発明は真空槽を用いた薄膜形成装置に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] [Purpose of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a thin film forming apparatus using a vacuum chamber.
(従来の技術)
近年、新しい材料の開発において、薄膜形成技術を用い

たとえば、薄膜形成装置として、スノくツタ法、蒸着法
、イオンビーム法などが知られている。For example, known thin film forming apparatuses include the snow ivy method, vapor deposition method, and ion beam method.
スパッタ法を例にとって以下説明を進める。第4図はダ

係が両図と逆になった、アップスパッタと呼ばれる構造
の装置等もある。The following explanation will be given by taking the sputtering method as an example. Figure 4 shows a snow sputtering device with a structure called down sputtering, in which there is a target (2) at the top of the vacuum chamber C1l for obtaining the desired thin film, a sample table (3) at the bottom, and a shirt plate in the middle. (41 is arranged. Then, an appropriate amount of gas (6) such as Ar (argon), which is generally called a rare gas, is introduced into the vacuum chamber (1), and the ions of the gas (5) are
or target power source consisting of AC or RF power source (6
) to collide with target (2) and target (2)
) sample table (3) shows vacuum pulp. In addition to the sputtering apparatus tK, there is also an apparatus called an up-sputtering apparatus in which the vertical relationship between the sample table (3) and the target (2) is reversed as shown in FIG. 5.

す如く落下すると、その部分が遮蔽されて、目的とする
薄膜f13が正常に形成できなくなる。By the way, in the down sputtering method as shown in Fig. 84, atoms or molecules flying out from the target (2) adhere not only in the direction of the sample table (3) but also all over the inner wall of the vacuum chamber (1) and form a film. This will seriously stain the inner wall of the vacuum chamber (1). And the membrane α attached to the inner wall
When υ is deposited to a thickness on the order of several μm, it peels off from the inner wall in the form of small pieces. When this small piece of peeled film Q2 falls onto the sample table (3) on the substrate placed above (as shown by arrow A in Figure 6), that part is shielded and the desired thin film f13 is normally formed. become unable.

、この膜がやはり剥離して、前述したのと同様の問題が
生じていた。Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, conventionally, as shown in Fig. 7, a stainless steel plate-like member α, called an anti-adhesion plate, was placed in a position to protect the inner wall of the true 22Wl (x). It was placed. This prevented the inner wall of the vacuum chamber (1) from becoming dirty. However, when forming a thin film (particularly a metal or alloy thin film) of several tens of micrometers or more on the substrate (7), during sputtering, the plate-shaped member α of the vacuum chamber (1) is added to the nourishing soil described in step 1 above. .. A film similar to 7'm is formed. Therefore, this film also peeled off, causing the same problem as described above.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a thin film forming apparatus capable of continuously forming a stable thin film over a long period of time.

以下、本発明になる薄膜形成装置の一実施例について第
1図乃至第3図にもとづいて説明する。(Embodiment) An embodiment of the thin film forming apparatus according to the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

Note that, in this figure, the power supply, vacuum pump, vacuum valve, etc. similar to the conventional example are omitted.

A gas such as argon is collided with a target,
Atoms or molecules of this target @ fly out from the target. This atom or molecule is located in the sample table (
Anything other than those heading towards (To) will be caught by the wire mesh (To) and anti-adhesion plate (C). That is, the peeling of the film from the adhesion prevention plate, which has conventionally occurred, does not occur. Here, the wire mesh (to) will be described in detail below.
