Abstract

See full text

A plasma CVD apparatus for continuously forming a diamond-like film on a length of magnetic tape, includes a first vacuum vessel, a plasma generating vessel for transforming a gaseous medium into a plasma, and an electrode for accelerating ions of the plasma toward the substrate. The plasma generating vessel has a gas outflow port of a shape complementary to that of the portion of the magnetic tape readied for deposition. A portion of the plasma generating vessel is disposed within the vacuum vessel, with the gas outflow port facing the substrate. A gap between the substrate and the gas outflow port is set to maintain the pressure of plasma in the gap uniform.
