Deposition Method) and an apparatus for performing this method.
近年、レーザーCVD法の開発研究が盛んにすゝめられ
ている。すなわち、反応用セル内に一種又は数種の気体
又は液体を入れ、これを強いレーザー光で励起すると、

反応生成物が得られるので、これらの反応生成物を反応
用セル内に配置した基板上に付着形成するものである。In recent years, research and development on the laser CVD method has been actively pursued. That is, when one or several kinds of gas or liquid is put in the reaction cell and excited by strong laser light,
Reactive gases and liquids are decomposed or combined by single photon or multi-photon absorption to grow nuclei, and reaction products are obtained.Therefore, these reaction products on the substrate placed in the reaction cell. It adheres to and is formed on.

い。By the way, as one of the technical problems in the laser CVD method, the reaction product adheres to the inner wall of the reaction cell, and in particular, the reaction product adheres to the inner surface of the window of the reaction cell into which the excitation laser beam enters. The reaction product attached to the window reduces the light amount of the excitation laser beam, resulting in a reduction in reaction efficiency. As another issue, when heating the substrate placed in the reaction cell, the reaction product particles decomposed by the irradiation of the excitation laser beam cause convection, and adhere to the inner wall of the periphery, so that the particles on the substrate The improvement of the adhesion efficiency to the can not be expected so much.

Substrate 2 that is transparent to ultraviolet light, such as Cl, CaF 2 and MgF 2 PMMA
And a substrate 4 opposed by a spacer 3 at a narrow interval of several mm, and an inlet 5 for a photochemically reactive gas or liquid. Although not shown, the ultraviolet laser light 6 from a horizontal discharge type pulse laser source such as an excimer laser has a uniform energy distribution in the horizontal direction and a Gaussian distribution in the vertical direction. An optical system configured by converting a linear laser beam onto one surface of the substrate 2 through a plane mirror 8 and irradiating the same, and by arranging the linear laser beam in the direction of an arrow 9 to move the two-curved cylindrical surface 7 and the plane mirror 8. Or the movement of the reaction cell 1 sweeps the surface of the substrate 2. As a result, reaction products are efficiently formed in a film form on the surfaces of the substrates 2 and 4 that come into contact with the photochemical reaction gas or liquid in the reaction cell 1.

に適する。As described above, in the laser CVD method of the present invention, conventionally, the adverse effect that the reaction product adheres to the entrance window of the excitation laser light, thereby reducing the light amount of the laser light in the reaction cell, is reversed. The linear discharge ultraviolet laser light from the lateral discharge pulsed laser source sweeps the substrates placed at narrow intervals so that the fine particles that are the reaction products in the reaction cell can be used. There is also little convection and there is an effect that the reaction product can be efficiently formed into a film on the substrate.
In addition, a desired portion of the substrate can be selectively swept to form a reaction product in a film shape on that portion, and a uniform and large area film can be used for a large area solar cell or a drum of an electrostatic copying machine. Suitable for mass production.
