Abstract

An electrostatic chuck heater according to the present invention includes an alumina substrate having a wafer placement surface on its upper surface; an electrostatic electrode, a resistance heating element provided for each zone, and a multilayer jumper wire for supplying power to the resistance heating element, which are buried in the alumina substrate in this order from the wafer placement surface side; a heating element coupling via for vertically coupling the resistance heating element to the jumper wire; and a power supply via extending outward for supplying power to the jumper wire. At least the heating element coupling via and the power supply via contain ruthenium metal.
