Abstract

A film formation apparatus includes a rotary table provided in a processing container; a mounting table mounting a substrate and revolved by rotation of the rotary table; a film formation gas supply part configured to supply a film formation gas to a region through which the mounting table passes by the rotation of the rotary table; a spinning shaft rotatably provided on a portion rotating together with the rotary table; a driven gear provided on the spinning shaft; a driving gear configured to rotate while facing a revolution orbit of the driven gear and provided along an entire circumference of the revolution orbit so as to constitute a magnetic gear mechanism with the driven gear, and a relative-distance-changing mechanism configured to change a relative distance between the revolution orbit of the driven gear and the driving gear.
