However, in the conventional method described above, in order to form a multilayer film, the laser irradiation is stopped once, and
Since it is necessary to break the vacuum of the vacuum chamber and replace the sample, it is unreasonable in terms of the process, and once the formed film and base material are exposed to the atmosphere, it may be difficult to achieve the desired film quality due to effects such as oxidation. If a film cannot be obtained and the temperature of the substrate is controlled during film formation,
In order to break the vacuum, it is unavoidable that temperature changes occur in the base material and the film at each step, so distortion occurs in the film due to thermal factors associated with the rise and fall of temperature, making it difficult to obtain a stable film. The problem was that it was not possible to do so.

On the other hand, as a laser evaporation apparatus that addresses the above-mentioned problems, there is one disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 177178/1983. That is, the laser beam oscillated by the laser oscillator is placed in the vacuum chamber at a distance from the base material by selecting one of the plurality of laser windows provided in the vacuum chamber using a switchable movable mirror. A desired vapor deposition material provided on a fixed pedestal is selected, and a desired tank is vapor-deposited onto the base material.
