Abstract

Abstract A plasma CVD apparatus for forming a deposited film onto a base body 3 by introducing a gas of a compound into a chamber 1 and converting the gas into plasma by applying a high frequency electric power, the apparatus comprising gas feeding means 6, 7 leading from the exterior of the chamber 1 into the interior of the chamber 1 and heating means 10,11 for heating at least a part of the gas feeding means inside of the chamber 1, the heating means 10, 11 preventing the gas from condensing or slidifying in the feeding means 6, 7. In this apparatus, plasma CVD can be carried out in a stable fashion using gases of various compounds which are either liquid or solid at room temperature.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 95 words
A plasma CVD apparatus for forming a deposited film onto a base body (3) by introducing a gas of a compound into a chamber (1) and converting the gas into plasma by applying a high frequency electric power, the apparatus including gas feeding means (6, 7) leading from the exterior of the chamber into the interior of the chamber and heating means (10,11) for heating at least a part of the gas feeding means (6, 7) inside of the chamber (1), thereby preventing the gas from condensing or solidifying in the feeding means (6, 7).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 95 words
A plasma CVD apparatus for forming a deposited film onto a base body (3) by introducing a gas of a compound into a chamber (1) and converting the gas into plasma by applying a high frequency electric power, the apparatus including gas feeding means (6, 7) leading from the exterior of the chamber into the interior of the chamber and heating means (10,11) for heating at least a part of the gas feeding means (6, 7) inside of the chamber (1), thereby preventing the gas from condensing or solidifying in the feeding means (6, 7).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the feeding means comprises a double-walled cylindrical member (14) and a bottom plate (15) both including internal cavities connected together.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
