摘要 |
There is disclosed a chemical vapor deposition apparatus of semi-conductor film comprising a horizontal type reaction tube equipped with a susceptor to carry a substrate, a heater to heat the substrate, an ingredient gas introduction zone arranged in a way that feeding direction to the reaction tube of the ingredient gas becomes substantially parallel to the substrate, and a reaction gas exhaust division, and further having a pressurized gas introduction zone on the wall of the reaction tube facing the substrate, wherein the structure of at least one part of the pressurized gas introduction zone at an upstream side of an ingredient gas passageway is such that the pressurized gas supplied from said part of the pressurized gas introduction zone is fed in an oblique down or a horizontal direction oriented to a downstream side of the ingredient gas passageway. Also, disclosed herein a chemical vapor deposition method using the apparatus. Thereby a uniform semiconductor film with good crystallinity is obtained even in the case of effecting chemical vapor deposition of a large-size substrate, or plural of substrates at the same time, or at elevated temperatures.
