ABSTRACT:
An object of the invention is to provide a method of sputtering and a device for sputtering which can improve distribution of a film's thickness and coverage distribution improve. The device for sputtering includes at least a substrate, a substrate holder which holds the substrate, a target for forming a thin film on the substrate, a sputtering cathode in which the target is installed, a means for sputtering which makes materials of the target sputter to the substrate. Sputtering is carried out by making the substrate holder rotate and making a sputter cathode unit comprising at least one sputtering cathode move along an arc over the rotating substrate held on the substrate holder.
