A plasma processing apparatus includes a mounting stage including a mounting surface, on which an object to be processed is mounted, a back surface provided on a side opposite to the mounting surface, a plate-like member, in which a first hole penetrating through the mounting surface and the back surface is formed, and a base having a supporting surface for supporting the plate-like member and having a second hole communicating with the first hole; and an embedment member disposed inside the first and second holes, the first embedment member being disposed inside the first hole, the second embedment member being disposed inside the second hole, wherein the first embedment member and the second embedment member are not mutually fixed, and the first embedment member has a portion having a wider width than a width of an upper end portion on a lower side than the upper end portion.

Plasma processing apparatus and method for manufacturing mounting stage

The present invention provides a stage which comprises: a plate-shaped member having a mounting surface on which a workpiece to be processed is mounted and a rear surface facing the mounting surface, said plate-shaped member being provided with a through hole that penetrates through the mounting surface and the rear surface; and an embedded member disposed inside the through hole. This stage is configured such that the surface of the embedded member is provided with at least one of a concave portion and a convex portion.

Stage and substrate processing apparatus

A plasma processing apparatus includes an electrostatic chuck and a lifter pin. The electrostatic chuck has a mounting surface on which a target object is mounted and a back surface opposite to the mounting surface, and a through hole formed through the mounting surface and the back surface. The lifter pin is at least partially formed of an insulating member and has a leading end accommodated in the through hole. The lifter pin vertically moves with respect to the mounting surface to vertically transfer the target object. A conductive material is provided at at least one of a leading end portion of the lifter pin which corresponds to the through hole and a wall surface of the through hole which faces the lifter pin.
