Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the thick deposition of a film without exposing a substrate to an atmosphere by performing the film formation by photochemical reaction at opening of a light screening plane and performing etching by light excitation of the film adhering to a light source or a light-transmission window at closing of said plate. CONSTITUTION:After a low-pressure mercury lamp 1 is lightened and the ultraviolet rays are emitted steadly, a light screening plate 2 is opened to start film formation. If a film adheres to a surface of the low-pressure mercury lamp 1 to reduce the quantity of incident light into a surface of a substrate 6, the light screening plate 2 is closed to stop the introduction of a gas and exhaust is done by a exhaust system 4. After that, a chlorine has is introduced from a gas system 3 to etch the film adhering to the low-pressure mercury lamp 1. If the quantity of incident light into the surface of the substrate 6 increases by etching, the introduction of the chlorine gas is stopped to form the film. These processes are repeated. Consequently, the film can be deposited thickly without exposing the substrate to the atmosphere and inclusion of impurities from oil into the film.
