<p>An electrostatic chuck includes an electrically conductive baseplate and an electrically non-conductive substrate support member disposed on the baseplate. First and second sets of clamp electrodes are disposed within the support member. A power supply system includes a clamp power supply, a center tap power supply, and a baseplate power supply. The clamp power supply generates a positive output voltage and a negative output voltage, each of which is equidistant from a center tap voltage. The positive output voltage is electrically connected to the first set of clamp electrodes. The negative output voltage is electrically connected to the second set of clamp electrodes. The center tap power supply is defined to control the center tap voltage of the clamp power supply. The baseplate power supply is defined to generate a baseplate output voltage independent from the center tap voltage. The baseplate output voltage is electrically connected to the baseplate.</p> |
