Abstract
A magnetic metal deposition material contained in a hearth is heated and evaporated in a vacuum to form a flow of vapor, which is then ionized and converged toward a predetermined deposition surface of a flexible substrate. The flexible substrate is moved obliquely downwardly along a convex course by sliding contact with the curved surface of a fixed curved guiding body between a pair of guide rollers located at different heights above the hearth. The fixed curved guiding body communicates with a coolant source for cooling the substrate moving in contact therewith and may be provided with oscillators. Thus a thin film of the magnetic metal is deposited on the convex surface of the substrate.
