ELECTROSTATIC CHUCK

摘要

Electrostatic chucks and methods of forming the chucks are disclosed. The chucks include ceramic materials directly bonded with a layer of active braze alloy. The active alloy operates as both a conductive layer of the electrostatic chuck and a mechanism for bonding the dielectric layer to the base of the chuck. Electrical feedthroughs to the electrode may also be formed using the active alloy.
