Abstract

Each of electrostatic chucks 1A to 1F includes a susceptor 11A having an adsorption face 11a of adsorbing a semiconductor, and an electrostatic chuck electrode 4 embedded in the susceptor. The susceptor includes a plate shaped main body 3 and a surface corrosion resistant layer 2 including the adsorption face 2. The surface corrosion resistant layer 2 is made of a ceramic material comprising magnesium, aluminum, oxygen and nitrogen as main components. The ceramic material comprises a main phase comprising MgO—AlN solid solution wherein aluminum nitride is dissolved into magnesium oxide.
