Abstract: A method for vaporizing an organometal compound and supplying the resulting vapor thereof to a crystal growth chamber which comprises the steps of heating an organometal compound to a predetermined temperature to obtain vapor of the compound at a predetermined vapor pressure and supplying, in a constant flow rate, the vapor to the surface of a substrate heated under a reduced pressure: an apparatus for vaporizing an organometal compound and supplying the resulting vapor thereof to a crystal growth chamber 11 comprising a first gas flow path for the vapor of the organometal compound which connects a container 20, in which the organometal compound is charged, to a crystal growth chamber heated under a reduced pressure through a first valve 21, a first massflow controller 22 and a second valve 23 in this order; and a constant temperature oven 24 and 25 for controlling the temperature of the container 20 and the first gas flow path extending from the container 20 to the second valve 23, are herein disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus for vaporizing and supplying an organometal compound comprising a gas flow path for starting gas which connects a container filled with the organometal compound to a crystal growth chamber heated under reduced pressure through a main valve, a massflow controller for the starting gas and a valve for supplying the starting gas; and a flow path for a carrier gas which connects a carrier gas source to the discharge outlet of the valve for supplying the starting gas through a massflow controller for carrier gas and a heat exchanger. The container, the flow path for the starting gas and the flow path for the carrier gas are arranged in a constant temperature oven.
