Abstract:
1. A film-forming apparatus comprising: a plurality of target electrodes respectively having attachment surfaces to which targets can be attached; a substrate holder configured to hold a substrate at a position opposing the plurality of target electrodes; a first shutter member rotatably provided between the plurality of target electrodes and the substrate holder and having a plurality of openings that oppose the attachment surfaces when the first shutter member is rotated; a first separating portion disposed between the openings of the first shutter member on one of two surfaces of the first shutter member that is on the target electrode side; and a second separating portion disposed between the first shutter member and the target electrodes, wherein the first shutter member is driven so as to bring the first separating portion and the second separating portion toward each other so that an indirect path can be formed between the first separating portion and the second separating portion, and driven so as to bring the first separating portion and the second separating portion away from each other so that the first shutter plate can be rotated.
