Abstract: The masking material includes a penetrating portion according to a predetermined pattern. The masking material includes a mask portion and at least the mask portion contacting the substrate is made of an elastic material. The penetrating portion includes an expanded portion that is expanded outwardly from a portion contacting the substrate toward the electrolyte membrane in a thickness direction of the mask portion such that in a state where the mask portion is elastically deformed by a pressing force of the electrolyte membrane, a shape of a cross section of a formation space of the penetrating portion in which the metal film is to be formed becomes rectangular.

Abstract: A film formation apparatus for forming a metal film includes an anode, a solid electrolyte membrane disposed between the anode and a substrate that serves as a cathode, a power supply device that applies a voltage between the anode and the cathode, a solution container that contains a solution between the anode and the solid electrolyte membrane, the solution containing metal ions, and a pressure device that pressurizes the solid electrolyte membrane to the cathode side with a fluid pressure of the solution. The film formation apparatus includes an auxiliary cathode disposed in a peripheral area of the film formation region when the surface of the substrate is viewed in plain view, the auxiliary cathode having an electric potential lower than an electric potential of the anode.

Abstract: Provided is a film formation device and a film formation method for a metallic coating that allow forming a metallic coating with a uniform film thickness. The film formation device of the present disclosure includes an anode, a solid electrolyte membrane, a power supply device, a solution container, and a pressure device. The solid electrolyte membrane is disposed between the anode and a substrate that serves as a cathode. The power supply device applies a voltage between the anode and the cathode. The solution container contains a solution between the anode and the solid electrolyte membrane. The solution contains metal ions. The pressure device pressurizes the solid electrolyte membrane to the cathode side with a fluid pressure of the solution. The film formation device further includes a shielding member disposed to surround an outer peripheral surface of the anode. The shielding member shields a line of electric force.

Abstract: Provided is an electromagnetic wave transmitting heater that has excellent heating properties and is capable of suppressing an increase in a cross section of a heater wire. The electromagnetic wave transmitting heater includes a plurality of heater wires disposed at intervals to allow transmission of electromagnetic waves, a pair of lateral wires, one of the pair of lateral wires being coupled to one end of each of the heater wires, another one of the pair of lateral wires being coupled to another end of each of the heater wires, and a pair of coupling wires, one of the pair of coupling wires being coupled to one of the pair of lateral wires, another one of the pair of coupling wires being coupled to another one of the pair of lateral wires. The lateral wires each have a cross section larger than a cross section of each of the heater wires.
