Abstract: A new chemical vapor reaction system is described. Instead of ECR where electrons can move as independent particles without interaction, a mixed cyclotron resonance is a main exciting principal for chemical vapor reaction. In the new proposed resonance, the resonating space is comparatively large so that a material having a high melting point such as diamond can be deposited in the form of a thin film by this inovative method.

Abstract: A CVD apparatus in which a reaction chamber includes a pair of electrodes which define a plasma generating space therebetween. A metallic enclosure surrounds the plasma generating space thereby preventing plasma which has been produced within the space from escaping. The enclosure can be utilized to support one or more substrates to be coated.

Abstract: A mercury-vapor lamp is provided with a reservoir in which a superfluous amount of mercury is stored in the form of liquid state. The liquid mercury in the reservoir is cooled to a certain temperature. The pressure of mercury-vapor is automatically reduced to the saturated pressure of the liquid mercury cooled. In this configuration, the pressure of mercury-vapor is controlled by adjusting the temperature of the liquid mercury stored in the reservoir.

Third and fourth walls are introduced into the reaction chamber already having affixed to them a substrate for deposition. A reactive gas is introduced into the reaction chamber for chemical vapor deposition onto the substrate.

Abstract: A photo CVD apparatus includes a reaction chamber, a vacuum pump, and a light source chamber disposed in the reaction chamber, the light source chamber having a light window. A light source is provided in the light source chamber for irradiating the inside of the reaction chamber through the window. A device inputs reactive gas into the reaction chamber, and an electrode is disposed in the reaction space adjacent to the window and located between the substrate and the window. A method of depositing a layer on a substrate includes the steps of disposing a substrate in a reaction chamber, introducing a reactive gas, and initiating a photo-chemical reaction to deposit the product of the reaction on the substrate by irradiating the reactive gas with light emitted from a light source through a window of a light source chamber in which the light source is disposed. The substrate is then removed from the reaction chamber, and an etchant gas is introduced into the reaction chamber.
