Abstract
A thermal decomposition cell for producing a molecular beam from a material gas, includes: a crucible maintained at a given temperature necessary for thermal decomposition of the material gas which is effused in the crucible in a given direction; and a thermal decomposition baffle provided in the crucible and heated to a given temperature necessary for thermal decomposition of the material gas for producing the molecular beam by thermal-decomposing of the material gas such that the material gas is baffled in substantially all directions, the thermal decomposition baffle being made of a given metal to cause the thermal decomposition of the material gas. The thermal decomposition baffle may comprise a fiber or a cloth made of the metal loaded in the crucible. The thermal decomposition baffle may comprise a plurality of different sized rooms made of the given metal, each of said rooms having fine holes to allow the material gas to pass therethrough, and successively arranged in such a manner that said material gas moves from one room toward the other adjacent thereto.
