Abstract

Process for producing a valence electron controlled functional crystalline film by introducing (i) a film forming gaseous raw material, (ii) a halogen series gaseous oxidizing agent to oxidize the raw material (i), and (iii) a gaseous raw material to impart a valence electron controlling agent separtely into a reaction region of a film deposition space and chemically reacting them to generate plural kinds of precursors containing excited precursors and to let at least one kind of said precursors to act as a film forming supplier whereby said crystalline film is formed on a selected substrate being kept at a predetermined temperature in the film deposition space.
