Abstract
An electrostatic chuck with a heater includes: a base formed of a sintered body containing alumina; an ESC electrode provided in an upper portion side in the base; and a resistance heating body embedded in a lower portion side in the base. The base is composed of a dielectric layer from the ESC electrode to an upper surface of the base, and of a support member from the ESC electrode to a lower surface of the base. In the support member, a carbon content differs between an ESC electrode neighborhood in contact with the dielectric layer and a lower region below the ESC electrode neighborhood, a carbon content in the dielectric layer is 100 wt ppm or less, the carbon content in the ESC electrode neighborhood is 0.13 wt % or less, the carbon content in the lower region is 0.03 wt % or more and 0.5 wt % or less, and the carbon content in the ESC electrode neighborhood is smaller than the carbon content in the lower region. The resistance heating body contains niobium or platinum.
