化される。BACKGROUND ART In ICB vapor deposition equipment, a crucible filled with a vapor deposition material is heated to a high temperature to vaporize the vapor deposition material, and the vaporized material is ejected into a high vacuum from a small hole (nozzle) provided in the crucible. This causes a state of supercooling, forming a mass of atoms called a cluster. A part of the cluster is ionized by electron irradiation in an ionization section provided above the crucible.

基板上へ付着させて薄膜を形成することが行なわれる。Further, the ionized clusters are accelerated in an electric field and deposited together with the non-ionized neutral clusters on the substrate to be deposited to form a thin film.

てしまうという問題点があった。However, when forming an organic thin film, the heat from this heater re-evaporates the organic film, or the organic matter comes into contact with the heater and is thermally decomposed, so that the formed thin film contains impurities. Therefore, there is a problem in that a water cooling cover or a cooling device using liquefied nitrogen must be installed to block the heat of the heater, resulting in a complicated device.
また、ヒータの寿命が短いのでヒータ交換を頻繁に行な
う必要があるだけでなく経時変化により電子発生状態が
安定しないという問題点もあった。Furthermore, since the life of the heater is short, it is necessary to replace the heater frequently, and there is also the problem that the state of electron generation is unstable due to changes over time.
