合も次のような問題が生じる。<Prior art and its problems] In order to uniformly deposit an evaporated substance onto an unprocessed object such as a metal strip using vacuum evaporation or ion blating, it is necessary to always supply the evaporated substance under the same conditions. No. There are two types of evaporation source material: lump-like evaporation source material and wire-like evaporation source material. The evaporation source material is supplied in the form of a lump or wire. However, the evaporation source material is supplied in the form of a lump. Then, the unmelted pieces of the evaporation source material fall into the container containing the molten evaporation source material, creating a splash, which prevents the deposition material from being evenly deposited on the workpiece, such as a metal strip. The following problem also occurs when attempting to supply the evaporation source material with a wire to prevent splashing.

常にコスト高となる。As an example, when melting and evaporating a wire-shaped evaporation source material with a single hollow cathode gun when performing ion blating using a hollow cathode electron beam,
Since the diameter of the electron beam emitted from the borrow cathode gun is relatively small, the diameter of the wire of the evaporation source material is limited by the diameter of the electron beam. That is, as shown in FIG. 1, since the diameter of the wire 1 of the evaporation source material is larger than the diameter of the electron beam 3 irradiated from the hollow cathode gun 2, the side part of the wire 1 of the evaporation source material is not melted. Remaining. The remainder of the wire ψ1 remaining unmelted is cut and falls into the melted evaporation source material in the crucible 4, creating a splash. For this reason, the workpiece 5 such as a metal strip
It is preferable that the wire 1 of the evaporation source material be a thin wire because it causes the film of the evaporation material formed on the surface of the evaporation material to be non-uniform. However, making the wire 1 of the evaporation source material thinner is extremely costly Becomes high.
