    摘要: When evaluating defects, etc. of a sample by measuring thermal expansion displacement on the surface of the sample, which is produced by irradiating thereto an excitation beam of which intensity is cyclically modulated, a measuring beam having the displacement frequency F.sub.1 is irradiated to the vibrating surface of the sample, and the reflection beam is interfered with a reference beam having the frequency F.sub.2. The beat wave signal E.sub.1 (Beat frequency F.sub.b =F.sub.1 -F.sub.2) is converted to a binary signal E.sub.2. Then, the sample is evaluated by signals which are obtained by giving a suitable processing to the binary signals. In addition, the optic axes alignment is eliminated by utilizing the excitation beam itself concurrently as measuring beam.

    摘要: A rotor having a cylindrical peripheral surface is disposed in a treatment vessel into which a carrier gas is introduced, and the rotor peripheral surface is opposed to the surface of a substrate with a predetermine gap therebetween. The rotor peripheral surface is also opposed to a film-forming material supplying member having a film-forming material on its surface at a position apart from the position where the rotor faces the substrate. Film-forming particulates including atomic molecules of the film-forming material and cluster particulates thereof are scattered from the surface of the film-forming material supplying member by sputtering, and the rotor is rotated to form a carrier gas flow near the rotor peripheral surface. The film-forming particulates are transported to the vicinity of the surface of the substrate by the carrier gas flow and adhered to the surface of the substrate. As a result, the adverse effect of high-energy particles and the like can be suppressed to efficiently form a satisfactory thin film by an evaporation or sputtering process, which has less restriction to a source material gas, without the need for large equipment.
