Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce a vapor-deposited thin film having satisfactory adhesion to a substrate and a high refractive index at a low production cost. CONSTITUTION:When a thin film of an oxide dielectric is formed on a substrate by vapor deposition in a system under reduced pressure, the system is first evacuated to <=5X10<-5> Torr, a nitrogen-contg. gas is introduced into the system and vapor deposition is carried out under such reduced pressure as 0.8X10<-4> --2.0X10<-4> Torr to form a thin film. Air or a gaseous nitrogen-oxygen mixture having a higher concn. of nitrogen than air is used as the nitrogen-contg. gas.
