Abstract

A stage includes a base and an electrostatic chuck provided on the base and including N electrodes in the electrostatic chuck, where N is an integer greater than or equal to two. The stage a power supply configured to apply voltages of different N-phases to the respective N electrodes. Each of the voltages has a positive level and a negative level that periodically alternate. A center line of an electrode gap provided between adjacent electrodes is represented by x=x=r·cos(θ+2π(n−1)/N) and y=r·sin(θ+2π(n−1)/N).
