PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ion-beam sputtering apparatus which prevents a scattered material in a pre-sputtering step from depositing on a substrate to be film-formed. SOLUTION: The ion-beam sputtering apparatus for forming a film on the substrate 22 by sputtering a target 21 fixed on a target holder 15 through irradiating the target with an ion beam 31 projected from a film-forming ion gun 12 and depositing the sputtered particles on the substrate comprises: a rotating mechanism installed on a target holder 15 for the purpose of rolling over the target so that the direction of the surface can be reversed from a film-forming state; a pre-sputtering ion gun 41 arranged so that the irradiation axis can direct the irradiation axis of the film-forming ion gun 12 symmetrically with respect to a rotating shaft 43 of the rotating mechanism; and a shielding plate 42 which surrounds the surface of the reversed target, and prevents the scattering of particles sputtered from the surface of the target of a reversed state by an ion beam 51 projected from the pre-sputtering ion gun 41.
