ABSTRACT:
In a CVD processing system for depositing a blanket tungsten film, a distinct shadow is formed without causing any micro-peeling when the substrate fixture is separated from the substrate so as to prevent any blanket tungsten from being deposited on SiO.sub.2, thus reducing the occurrence of fine dust particles. A CVD processing system for depositing a blanket tungsten film, includes a susceptor (4); a ring chuck (9) for affixing the peripheral portion of a substrate (3) on the susceptor; reactive gas supply mechanisms (17, 18 and 19) for supplying reactive gas; and an exhaust mechanism (2) for exhausting unreacted gas and the like, wherein: the ring chuck has at least three point contact members (10) in contact with the peripheral portion of the substrate; the point contact members are provided at positions outside the inner periphery of the ring chuck; a gap (11) is formed at the point contact members between the ring chuck and the substrate; and purge gas supply mechanisms (20 and 21) are provided to blow off purge gas through the gap in order to prevent reactive gas from entering the gap (11). A ratio of the size of the gap to the flow rate of purge gas is set to such an optimum value as to satisfy a condition in which the position of the peripheral portion of the thin film coincides with the position of the inner periphery of the ring chuck.
