Abstract
Nitrogen gas supplied from the outside of a chamber flows into an annular first buffer to diffuse uniformly along the circumferential direction of a gas ring. The nitrogen gas filled in the first buffer flows into a second buffer with having a volume larger than that of the first buffer to diffuse more uniformly along the circumferential direction of the gas ring. The nitrogen gas filled in the second buffer flows into a labyrinth portion to flow through a bent flow path of the labyrinth portion from the inside toward the outside along the radial direction of the gas ring, so that a flow rate of the nitrogen gas decreases. The nitrogen gas flowing out of the labyrinth portion flows into a discharge flow path, and flows from the outside toward the inside along the radial direction of the gas ring to be discharged from the gas discharge opening.
