Abstract

An apparatus for depositing metal thin film on predetermined portions of an underlayer of a substrate by a chemical deposition method with good selectivity, good reproducibility and high deposition rate. Hydrogen atoms are prevented from adhering to portions of the substrate not to be deposited with a metal using a light source for heating only the substrate while cooling other portions exposed to starting material gases or a special gas flow controlling plate or shading plate.
