A semiconductor device assessment apparatus that electrically assesses a semiconductor device formed on a semiconductor substrate includes a holding unit having a surface to hold the semiconductor substrate thereon, and a detection unit to detect irregularity on the surface of the holding unit. The holding unit on the surface includes a plurality of grooves formed such that when the semiconductor substrate is held on the surface, the grooves overlap a periphery of the semiconductor substrate and also have a portion located outer than the periphery of the semiconductor substrate. |
