  • Patent number: 5225245
    Abstract: An apparatus for forming, by a chemical vapor deposition process, a thin film of crystals such as diamond on a surface of a heated substrate placed in a reaction vessel. The apparatus has a substrate supporting structure, a heater for heating the substrate by heat conduction or by electric current supplied directly to the substrate, and a cooling device for cooling the substrate. The heater is controlled in accordance with the measured temperature of the substrate so as to accurately maintain the substrate temperature at a constant level.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 17, 1990
    Date of Patent: July 6, 1993
    Assignee: Kawasaki Steel Corporation
    Inventors: Tomohiro Ohta, Eiichi Kondoh, Tohru Mitomo, Kenichi Otsuka, Hiroshi Sekihashi
