ABSTRACT:
A sputtering apparatus to be used in reactive sputtering which mixes a reactive gas into a discharge gas so as to form chemical compound thin membranes.
A heating means is provided for heating the target. Light such as infrared rays or the like, and laser beams are ideal as the heating means. A thermometer for applying light is preferable to measure the temperature of at least one portion of the target for controlling the heating condition of the target. The composition of the thin membrane to be formed by the reactive sputtering can may be made constant.
