Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and an apparatus for forming a silicon nitride film having a composition of substantially stoichiometric ratio at a low temperature and an enhanced processing rate. SOLUTION: The reaction tube 2 of a heat treatment furnace 1 is coupled with a second gas introduction pipe 14 for introducing trimethylamine into the reaction tube 2. The second gas introduction pipe 14 is provided with a heater 15 for heating trimethylamine. A constricted part 16 is formed in the second gas introduction pipe 14 on the downstream side of the heater 15. Trimethylamine is heated at 550 deg.C by means of the heater 15 and fed through the second gas introduction pipe 14 into the reaction tube 2.
