Abstract
A compact vaporizer system is presented to produce a high quality vapor feed from a liquid feed to be delivered to a chemical vapor deposition processing chamber to produce thin film devices based on highly dielectric or ferroelectric materials such as BaTiO.sub.3, SrTiO.sub.3 and others such materials. The vaporization apparatus comprises a feed tank for storing the liquid feed; feed delivery means for transporting the liquid feed by way of a feed delivery path; a vaporizer section disposed in the delivery path comprising a high temperature heat exchanger having a capillary tube for transporting the liquid feed and a heat source for externally heating the capillary tube; and a vaporization prevention section disposed upstream of the vaporizer section for preventing heating effects of the vaporizer section to the liquid feed within the vaporization prevention section.
