A deposition apparatus includes a dome rotatable around the central axis; a loop chain surrounding the central axis on the dome; a power transmission shaft transmitting rotational motion of the dome; a first gear section transforming the rotational motion of the dome to rotational motion of the shaft; a second gear section provided with a chain-driving sprocket and configured to transform the rotational motion of the shaft to rotational motion of the sprocket; and a tray holder located beside the loop chain, the tray holder including a first internal power transmission shaft and a rotating portion holding a tray. The sprocket is rotated through the rotation of the dome to drive the loop chain, the first internal power transmission shaft of the tray holder is rotated by motion of the loop chain, and the rotating portion is rotated through rotation of the first internal power transmission shaft.

Deposition apparatus and manufacturing process including film forming step by deposition apparatus

A deposition apparatus includes a deposition source; a rotatable dome provided with an opening which covers the source; a first lever provided outside of the dome; and a tray holder including a frame including a first rotating member and a rotating part including a second rotating member and being attached to the frame such that the rotating part rotates with the second rotating member around an axis supported by the frame. The rotating part includes work-holding trays arranged around the axis, the tray holder is installed on the dome such that a side of one of the trays covers the opening, the first rotating member is rotated by the first lever during rotation of the dome, and the second rotating member is rotated with the rotating part by the first rotating member so as to change the tray a side of which covers the opening to another one.
