2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a crucible of an apparatus for forming a deposited film by irradiating an electron beam is generally an oxygen-free copper container. However, depending on the material to be evaporated, the evaporation material in the crucible cannot be used effectively due to the limitation of the heat resistance of the crucible. For example, when evaporating aluminum oxide or silicon oxide, the surface temperature of the crucible rises to 1000 ° C. or higher when an electron beam is irradiated near the crucible, and thus the oxygen-free copper crucible may be melted. For this reason, it was necessary to leave some evaporation material near the inner wall of the crucible without being evaporated.

The above object is achieved by the invention described in the claims. That is, in a vapor deposition apparatus capable of forming a vapor deposition film by irradiating a substrate traveling in a vacuum chamber with an electron beam, a carbon material plate containing 95% or more of a graphite component is formed on an inner wall portion of a crucible for holding a vaporized material. By disposing the crucible, melting of the crucible itself can be prevented by graphite having a melting point of 3550 ° C. even if the electron beam is irradiated near the inner wall of the crucible. Therefore, the evaporation material in the crucible can be used up to the vicinity of the inner wall, and the material can be used effectively.

Even if a plate made of a carbon material, desirably a carbon composite material becomes thin due to erosion such as oxidation, it can be easily recovered by replacing the plate. Further, if the plate is divided, the replacement cost can be reduced.
