Abstract

A gas injector includes a body, a motor and a chopper. The body is mounted on a reaction chamber in a vertically extending cylinder shape and has a plurality of gas injection tubes and a central hollow portion. The plurality of gas injection tubes pass through a bottom face of the body and the central hollow portion passes through each center of the bottom and top faces of the body. The motor has a rotary shaft inserted into the central hollow portion. The chopper is formed in a circular-plate shape and has a notch on a predetermined portion. The chopper is coupled with an end of the rotary shaft and rotated by a rotation of the rotary shaft in a state that the bottom face of the body is closely attached to the chopper through a magnetic sealing.
