摘要： A method for forming a deposition film from an aqueous solution by electrochemical reaction includes the steps of: forming the targeted deposition film under primary deposition conditions; replacing at least part of members in contact with the solution or removing deposit on surfaces of the members; and depositing a film under secondary deposition conditions. These steps are performed in that order. Then, the deposition film is formed again under the primary deposition conditions. In the method, the resulting deposition film exhibits desired characteristics even after maintenance of the deposition apparatus.

摘要： The present process for electrodepositing a zinc oxide film comprises the steps of immersing a substrate and an opposing electrode in an electrodeposition bath which contains zinc nitrate and is kept heated, and forming the zinc oxide film on the substrate by passing a current between the substrate and the opposing electrode, wherein the process further includes a step of trapping the particles of zinc oxide precipitated in the electrodeposition bath by circulating or stirring the bath before the formation of the zinc oxide film, whereby the present process can prevent the generated zinc oxide powder from depositing on the surfaces of the substrate and the zinc oxide film formed by electrodeposition when restarting or starting the formation of a zinc oxide film by the electrodeposition using an electrodeposition apparatus, and hence the formation of a uniform zinc oxide film free from defects.
