<p>A vapor phase growth apparatus capable of reducing adhesion of particles or formation of crystal defects caused during vapor phase growth is provided. The vapor phase growth apparatus (10) has a reaction chamber (11); a susceptor (12) for placing a silicon wafer (20) thereon, the susceptor being provided in the reaction chamber; a pocket portion (12a) formed in the susceptor, the pocket portion being provided with through holes (12b); and lift pins (13) each of which is inserted into each of the through holes, the lift pins being arranged so as to slide freely. Installation and removal of the silicon wafer on the susceptor are made by making the lift pins go up and down and making the lift pins be in contact with and separated from a rear surface (21) of the silicon wafer, and a surface of each of the lift pins that slides in contact with the susceptor is polished. <IMAGE></p> |
