Patent attributes
A vaporizing apparatus for generating a process gas from a liquid material includes a vaporizing container defining a vaporizing space of the vaporizing apparatus; an injector connected to the vaporizing container to spray the liquid material in an atomized state into the vaporizing space; and a heater attached to the vaporizing container to heat the liquid material sprayed in the vaporizing space. The vaporizing apparatus further includes a gas delivery passage connected to the vaporizing container to output from the vaporizing space a generation gas generated from the liquid material; a filter disposed inside the gas delivery passage or between the gas delivery passage and the vaporizing space to trap mist contained in the generation gas; and an infrared irradiation mechanism configured to irradiate the filter with infrared rays.
