The electrostatic chucking device 2 comprises an electrostatic chuck 4; a temperature detecting unit 10 for detecting the temperature of the electrostatic chuck 4; a power supply 9 connected to the electrostatic chuck 4 and used for impressing a DC voltage to the electrostatic chuck 4 to provide it with an attracting force; and a controller 11 for controlling the value of the DC voltage impressed by the power supply 9 according to the temperature of the electrostatic chuck detected by the temperature detecting unit 10. When the value of the temperature of the electrostatic chuck 4 detected by the temperature detecting unit 10 is higher than the preset value, the controller 11 lowers the voltage impressed by the power supply 9 from the preset value and when the value of the temperature of the electrostatic chuck 4 is lower than the preset value, the controller 11 raises the impressed voltage from the preset value, whereby the attracting force of the electrostatic chuck 4 can be kept irrespective of temperature change of the electrostatic chuck 4.
