なっている。(Prior Art) Conventionally, an electron gun for vapor deposition has an electron beam source and an electron beam acceleration, in a crucible for containing a raw material to form a thin film.
It was equipped with a deflection mechanism. The crucible is made of a metal having a good thermal conductivity such as copper and can be water-cooled.

り、真空装置の排気上の問題となっていた。(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Since the vapor deposition electron gun is arranged in a vacuum device in such a structure as to be supported by, for example, a water cooling pipe, after being evacuated in the vacuum device, it is externally applied. It was difficult to heat. This is because the space between the wall surface of the vacuum device and the electron gun for vapor deposition is vacuum-insulated, and the amount of heat transferred through the water cooling pipe is also small. For this reason, the gas emission from the vapor deposition electron gun takes a long time, which is a problem in exhausting the vacuum device.

不純物は、基板に堆積させる薄膜中へも混入するので、
蒸発分布や蒸発速度に悪影響を与えるのみならず、薄膜
の性質にも悪影響を与える問題点があった。Also, when vapor deposition is started, the vapor deposition electron gun, which could hardly be heated during the exhaust process, is rapidly heated, and a large amount of attached water molecules are released at one time. The pressure around the gun rises locally,
There is also a problem in that abnormal discharge occurs in the electrode portion that constitutes the electron beam source and the electron beam acceleration mechanism, and damages the equipment such as the electrode and the power supply. On the other hand, the attached impurities such as water molecules are mixed in the thin film deposited on the substrate.
There is a problem that not only the evaporation distribution and the evaporation rate are adversely affected, but also the properties of the thin film are adversely affected.

Further, such a heating mechanism is attached to the outside of the crucible body or is embedded in the inside of the crucible body, but may be installed both inside and outside.
