Abstract

Disclosed is a plasma etching apparatus which includes: a base formed of a metal that has a lower expansion coefficient than aluminum; an electrostatic chuck disposed on a mounting surface of the base and configured to mount an object to be processed; a bonding layer which bonds the base to the electrostatic chuck; and a heater provided within the electrostatic chuck. In the plasma etching apparatus, the base is provided with a metal portion that is formed through a cold spraying by using a metal that has a higher thermal conductivity than the metal for forming the base.
