Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To eliminate the deterioration in withstand voltage performance with a simple structure and to improve the reliability of the title device by providing a gate valve between an ion source and a vacuum vessel not to expose the ion source to the atmosphere even when the vacuum vessel is opened. CONSTITUTION:A gate valve 12 is provided between an ion source 6 and a vacuum vessel 1 with a gasket 10 on the ion source side and a sheet 11 on the vessel 1 side. The vessel 1 is evacuated from an discharge pipe 13 by an evacuation device. The gate valve 12 is closed when the vessel 1 is opened, hence the ion source 6 is completely unaffected and a highly reliable thin film forming device having excellent withstand voltage performance can be obtained. The operations such as conditioning can be dispensed with. Besides, the vessel 1 is preferably shaped in the form of a cylinder or a box or a sphere.
