MICROWAVE PLASMA CVD SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention provides a microwave plasma CVD device that can satisfactorily perform plasma position control under a condition capable of fabricating a large-area high-quality diamond thin film or the like. A microwave plasma CVD device includes: a vacuum chamber 1 having, in the center of its upper portion, an open portion 2 for introducing microwaves 20; a base material support table 11 for supporting a base material inside the vacuum chamber; a waveguide for guiding the microwaves to the open portion; a dielectric window 22 for introducing the microwaves to the inside of the vacuum chamber; and an antenna portion 25 for introducing the microwaves to the vacuum chamber, the antenna portion being configured by a round rod portion 23 that is positioned in the center of the waveguide, the open portion and the dielectric window and an electrode portion 24 that holds the dielectric window between the electrode portion and the upper portion of the vacuum chamber for vacuum retention, wherein an end surface of the electrode portion 24 is formed wider than the dielectric window such that the dielectric window is hidden, and a concave portion of a predetermined size is formed in the surface of the electrode portion 24 that faces the center of the vacuum chamber.
