PURPOSE:To enable to perform steady attraction at a low application voltage of several hundred volts as well as to eliminate the dielectric breakdown of a sample by a method wherein, when the sample is electrostatically attracted to the supporting member consisting of a semiconductive dielectric, the dielectric is composed of cellulose carbon or graphite wherein the volume resistivity of the dielectric is formed at 10<4>-10<8>OMEGA/cm. CONSTITUTION:An attracting stand, consisting of a semiconductive dielectric (b) which electrostatically attracts a conductive sample (a), is formed by the material consisting of the cellulosic carbon, pyrolytic graphite and the like, volume resistivity of which is prescribed at 10<4>-10<8>OMEGA/cm. Then, an electrode (c) is coated on the back of the dielectric (b), and the sample (a) is electrostatically attracted on the surface of the dielectric (b) by applying voltage to the sample (a) and the electrode (c). Accordingly, the electrostatic attraction force of several kg/cm<2> can be obtained by applying a low voltage of several hundred volts, and also the dielectric breakdown phenomenon of the sample, which is the intrinsic defect of an electrostatic chuck, can be prevented. |
