Abstract

An electrostatic chuck is provided for a substrate stage that can be used in plasma treatment of various substrates such as a large-sized glass substrate for a flat panel display (FPD), a semiconductor wafer or the like. The electrostatic chuck is divided into a plurality of electrodes formed into nearly bar-like shapes. In accordance with an exemplary embodiment, each of the divided bar-like electrodes includes an inner electrode and a single layer thermally sprayed film formed on the surface of the inner electrode, with the bar-like electrodes disposed in parallel so as to form a plane electrode.
