In the vacuum chamber 3 having the exhaust pump 2, two independent reaction chambers 9-1 and 9-2 are installed. Internal chamber 4 that forms each reaction chamber 4-
The gap between 1,4-2 and the rotary plate 10 as the substrate holder, which is the floor of the chamber, is constant at only 1 to 2 mm, and due to this small appropriate gas conductance, the reaction chamber is practically used. The reaction system 9-1 and the reaction chamber 9-2 are independent of each other. Regarding the temperature of the substrate 5, the lamp heaters 8-1 and 8-2 are independently controlled, and the holes 10-1 and 10 formed in the rotary plate 10 through the glass windows 7-1 and 7-2. Since the substrate is heated by the heat ray passing through −2, both substrates can be independently set to different reaction temperatures.

る。In this embodiment, multilayer film formation is performed as follows. Here, the case of forming a tungsten silicide film and then continuously forming a pure tungsten film thereon will be described. First, the substrate 5 is placed on the holding plate 6 on the rotating plate 10 in the reaction chamber 9-1. From the reaction gas introduction system 1-1
F 6 , SiH 4 , and He are introduced as reaction gases, the reaction temperature is set to 350 ° C. by the lamp heater 8-1, and the first-layer tungsten silicide film is formed to 50 nm on the substrate. After that, the rotary plate 10 is rotated by 180 °, the substrate 5 is transferred to the reaction chamber 9-2, and the reaction gas introduction system 1-2 drives the W
F 6 , H 2 , and He are introduced as reaction gases, the lamp heater 8-2 is adjusted to a reaction temperature of 500 ° C., and a second pure tungsten film is additionally formed to 100 nm on the substrate.

The above conditions are always kept constant at their optimum values, and continuous multilayer film formation is possible without mutual interference.

It is also possible to use some of the additional ones for preheating the substrate, for cooling, or as a substrate exchange chamber (these may be able to omit the internal chamber). ) In the above, the rotary plate 10 has the internal chambers 4-1 and 4-2.
It also functions as a floor of the substrate 5 and functions as a substrate holder for the substrate 5, which is shown in FIGS. 2A (cross-sectional view) and 2B.
It can be considered as a simplification of the device shown. However, FIG. 2B is a plan view of the substrate holder 100 of FIG. 2A. What can be called the inner chamber floor in this case is rather 11-1, 11-2.
