Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de formation de film (1000) qui comporte : un récipient de matière (1100) dans lequel une matière de dépôt en phase vapeur est contenue ; un tuyau de transport (1200) pour transporter un gaz qui contient une vapeur de la matière de dépôt en phase vapeur, évaporée dans le récipient de matière (1100) ; et une tête de dépôt en phase vapeur (1300) pour projeter le gaz qui a été transporté à travers le tuyau de transport (1200) et contient la vapeur de la matière de dépôt en phase vapeur. L'appareil de formation de film (1000) comporte également un élément chauffant pour chauffer le récipient de matière (1100), le tuyau de transport (1200) et la tête de dépôt en phase vapeur (1300). De plus, le récipient de matière (1110), le tuyau de transport (1200), la tête de dépôt en phase vapeur (1300) et l'élément chauffant sont contenus dans un récipient sous vide (1400).
