摘要 |
The invention provides an electrostatic chuck capable of widening a temperature range when the temperature of a flat substrate is controlled and reducing a variation in thermal conductivity between the electrostatic chuck and the flat substrate over time. According to an aspect of the invention, an electrostatic chuck includes: a body that has an internal electrode for attracting a flat substrate by an electrostatic force provided therein; a plurality of protrusions that are formed on one surface of the body, serving as an electrostatic attraction surface; and one or more minute projections that are provided on each of top surfaces of some or all of the plurality of protrusions. In the electrostatic chuck, a region of the top surface of each of the minute projections on which the flat substrate is loaded is referred to as a mounting surface, and the total area of the mounting surfaces of the minute projections is equal to or larger than 0.01% and equal to or smaller than 2% of the area of the electrostatic attraction surface.
