ABSTRACT:
A turbo-molecular pump that enables reliable suppression of attachment of depositions onto component parts thereof. The turbo-molecular pump discharges a deposition-causing gas from a processing chamber. A rotor has a rotor shaft aligned with an exhaust stream. A cylindrical casing houses the rotor therein. A plurality of blade-form rotor blades projects from the rotor orthogonally with respect to the rotor shaft and are divided into a plurality of rotor blade groups. A plurality of blade-form stator blades projects orthogonally with respect to the rotor shaft from a rotor-facing surface and are divided into a plurality of stator blade groups. Gas supply ports are located on an upstream side of the rotor blade group that is located furthest downstream in the exhaust stream, and supply a deposition-suppressing gas which includes gas molecules having a large molecular weight.
