    摘要: It is often the case that a substrate suitable for epitaxial growth does not match a substrate desirable for the use in functional elements such as thermoelectric conversion elements or the like. The present invention makes it possible to separate a predetermined layered structure formed on a substrate therefrom through an action of water vapor. A method of manufacturing a crystalline film of the present invention includes the steps of: epitaxially growing on a substrate a crystalline film including a layered structure so that the layered structure comes into contact with the substrate; contacting water vapor supplied from a water vapor source with the layered structure in a chamber; and separating the layered structure that has been contacted with the water vapor from the substrate to obtain the crystalline film. The layered structure has a layer containing an alkali metal, and a layer containing an oxide of at least one element selected from the group consisting of Co, Fe, Ni, Mn, Ti, Cr, V, Nb, and Mo.
