Abstract

A film forming apparatus, for forming a metal oxide film on an object, includes a holding unit and a heating unit. The holding unit includes a first heater and holds the object in a processing chamber. A first heater power supply supplies power to the first heater. A target electrode is electrically connected to a metal target provided above the holding unit. A sputtering power supply is electrically connected to the target electrode. An introduction mechanism supplies an oxygen gas toward the holding unit. The heating unit includes a second heater for heating the object and a moving mechanism for moving the second heater between a region in a first space disposed above the holding unit and a region in a second space separated from the first space. A second heater power supply supplies power to the second heater.
