Abstract: A plasma chemical vapor deposition device includes a chamber, a first conductor having an elongated shape, a second conductor having a tubular shape, a high-frequency output device, and a direct-current power supply. A first connecting portion of the first conductor with the high-frequency output device and a second connecting portion of the first conductor with the direct-current power supply are both placed outside the chamber. A distance from one end of the first conductor to the first connecting portion is shorter than a distance from the one end of the first conductor to the second connecting portion. An impedance change portion is provided between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion in the first conductor, the impedance change portion having an impedance different from an impedance between the one end of the first conductor and the first connecting portion.

Abstract: An atomic flux measurement device for measuring the amount of dissociated atomic flux produced by discharge and emitted from a plasma generation cell into a vacuum camber. The atomic flux measurement device includes a counter electrode body including a pair of first and second sheet-like electrodes that are arranged substantially parallel to each other with a predetermined spacing between them, a direct-current power supply configured to maintain the first sheet-like electrode at a negative potential so that atoms attached to the inner surface of the sheet-like electrode undergo self-ionization and to apply a direct-current voltage between the first and second sheet-like electrodes so that a current flows between the first and second sheet-like electrodes, and a direct-current ammeter configured to measure a current flowing due to electrons emitted by the self-ionization of the dissociated atoms attached to the inner surface of the first sheet-like electrode.
