Abstract
According to the embodiment, the first invention relates to an electrostatic chuck. The electrostatic chuck includes a ceramic dielectric substrate having a first major surface placing a suction object and a second major surface on an opposite side to the first major surface, a base plate supporting the ceramic dielectric substrate and including a gas introduction path, and a first porous part provided at a position between the base plate and the first major surface and being opposite to the gas introduction path. The first porous part includes sparse portions including pores and a dense portion having a density higher than a density of the sparse portions. Each of the sparse portions extends from the base plate toward the ceramic dielectric substrate. The dense portion is positioned between the sparse portions. The sparse portions include a wall portion provided between the pores and the pores.
