摘要

A plasma CVD apparatus comprising a vacuum chamber, and a main roll and a plasma generation electrode in the vacuum chamber, wherein a thin film is formed on a surface of a long substrate which is conveyed along the surface of the main roll is provided. At least one side wall extending in transverse direction of the long substrate is provided on each of the upstream and downstream sides in the machine direction of the long substrate, and the side walls surrounds the film deposition space between the main roll and the plasma generation electrode. The side walls are electrically insulated from the plasma generation electrode. The side wall on either the upstream or the downstream side in the machine direction of the long substrate is provided with at least one raw of gas supply holes formed by gas supply holes aligned in the transverse direction of the long substrate.
