Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a thermoelectron high density plasma generator particularly for generating thermoelectrons to form high density plasma to assist high speed film deposition by reactive sputtering. SOLUTION: In the gun type plasma generator for generating the thermoelectrons, an apparatus main body is constituted of a cylindrical body having an opening part on the anode side, an induction coil wound around the outer circumference of the cylindrical body, an inert gas introducing pipe and a thermoelectron source provided inside the cylindrical body. A reactive gas introducing pipe for releasing a reactive gas apart from the emission of the plasma is provided inside the thermoelectron source, and the high density plasma is generated between the opening part and an anode connected to the anode of an accelerating power source to form a large amount of plasma flux.
