<p>An electrostatic chuck device which enables to perform a plasma process having high in-plane uniformity to a plane-like sample by improving the in-plane uniformity of the electric field intensity in a plasma when applied to a plasma processing apparatus. Specifically disclosed is an electrostatic chuck device (21) including an electrostatic chuck section (22), a metal base section (23) serving as a high-frequency generating electrode, and an insulating plate (24). The electrostatic chuck section (22) is composed of a dielectric plate (31) whose top surface (31a) serves as a mounting surface on which a plate-like sample (W) is placed, a supporting plate (32), an electrostatic-adsorption inner electrode (25), and an insulating layer (33). The electrostatic-adsorption inner electrode (25) is made of a composite sintered body containing an insulating ceramic and silicon carbide, while having a volumetric resistance of not less than 1.0×10−1Ωcm but not more than 1.0×108Ωcm.</p> |
