Abstract
A process for producing a thin film of a fluoride comprising reacting a gaseous fluorinating agent and gas of a volatile organometallic compound in a gas phase in a reactor, wherein a plasma of the gaseous fluorinating agent obtained by activating the gaseous fluorinating agent by microwave under a condition of electron cyclotron resonance is used as a fluorine source, and the fluoride is deposited on a substrate by reacting the plasma of the gaseous fluorinating agent with the gas of a volatile organometallic compound at outside of an area of generation of the plasma. A thin film of a fluoride which contains very little impurities such as carbon, oxygen, and organic substances, and is highly pure, transparent, and consolidated is produced.
