Abstract

PURPOSE:To form CVD films in even thickness on a wafer surface by a method wherein an auxiliary heater compensating the temperature decline in a heater end is provided on the end of a power supplied resistance heater. CONSTITUTION:Within a CVD device, the central side end of a power supplied resistance spiral heater 1 is bent downward to be modified into an auxiliary heater 3 for compensating the temperature decline in the end part 1A of the heater 1. Next, when the wiring between the electrode terminals 2 of this spiral heater 1 is supplied with the power, the temperature decline in the electrode terminal 2 parts on the central side of the heater 1 can be compensated by the auxiliary heater 3. That is, the temperature declined in the end part 1A of the heater 1 can be compensated by the auxiliary heater 3 to make the distribution of temperature of the wafer 7 even. Through these procedures, CVD films in even thickness can be formed on the wafer 7 surface.
