The ion beam irradiation apparatus has a vacuum chamber 10, an ion source
2, a substrate driving mechanism 30, rotation shafts 14, arms 12, and a
motor. The ion source 2 is disposed inside the vacuum chamber 10, and
emits an ion beam 4 which is larger in width than a substrate 6, to the
substrate 6. The substrate driving mechanism 30 reciprocally drives the
substrate 6 in the vacuum chamber 10. The center axes 14a of the rotation
shafts 14 are located in a place separated from the ion source 2 toward
the substrate, and substantially parallel to the surface of the
substrate. The arms 12 are disposed inside the vacuum chamber 10, and
support the ion source 2 through the rotation shafts 14. The motor is
disposed outside the vacuum chamber 10, and reciprocally rotates the
rotation shaft 14.
