Patent attributes
A film-forming device that includes a cylindrical chamber capable of maintaining vacuum therein, a workpiece holder that is constructed to align and hold workpieces to be processed in multiple stages such that main surfaces of the workpieces are oriented in a vertical direction relative to a central axis of the chamber, a deposition material supply pipe, a modifier supply pipe, a carrier gas supply pipe, and an exhaust mechanism, wherein in a cross section of the chamber in a direction parallel to the main surfaces of the workpieces, the exhaust mechanism is located on a side opposite to an opening direction of gas outlets of the deposition, modifier, and carrier gas supply pipes, and a total gas flow from the deposition, modifier, and carrier gas supply pipes is symmetric about a centerline of the chamber.
