Abstract

A vacuum film formation device is proposed in which when forming TiN/Ti films before forming a W film, the W film is prevented from peeling, the Ti film can be formed on all the surfaces of a wafer, and a chamber can be alternately used for forming the TiN film or the Ti film, thereby enlarging the film-forming effective area and improving the productivity. For this purpose, a drive mechanism 1 of a cover shield 2 is provided in a vacuum device chamber. When the films are formed, the vertical position of the cover shield 2 is changed by the drive mechanism 1 when forming the TiN film and when forming the Ti film, respectively.
