Abstract: An electric grating food processor including a food material receiving section 18 that has an opening in its upper part and receives processed food materials therein, a cylindrical food material charging section 68 that has a lower end opening at its lower end, a grater plate 58 that is rotated or linearly reciprocated under the lower end opening of the food material charging section, and a drive unit for operating (rotating or linearly reciprocating) the grater plate; and the grater plate is formed with larger grating blades on one surface side thereof and lower grating blades on another surface side thereof, and the grater plate is further provided thereon with a gap adjuster 98 that adjusts the gap between the tip ends of the grating blades and the lower end opening of the food material charging section.

Abstract: An ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma) system is used as a plasma generating means. A CVD process gas is introduced within a vacuum vessel from a gas inlet nozzle, and is then converted into plasma by a high frequency electric field induced within the vacuum vessel by an electromagnetic wave from an antenna. A sample can be located at a position not to be exposed to plasma, and a decomposed product material produced from the CVD process gas by the plasma is deposited on the surface of the sample mounted on a sample stage, thus forming a film. A dielectric viewing port, the antenna and the sample are disposed along the same axial direction such that the directions of the planes thereof correspond to each other, so that the film formation on the surface of the sample within the vacuum vessel can be observed through the transparent dielectric viewing port.
