Abstract
Disclosed herein is an electrostatic chuck (ESC) carrier. The ESC carrier may comprise a carrier substrate having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. A first through substrate opening and a second through substrate opening may pass through the carrier substrate from the first surface to the second surface. A first conductor is in the first through substrate opening, and a second conductor is in the second through substrate opening. The ESC carrier may further comprise a first electrode over the first surface of the carrier substrate and electrically coupled to the first conductor, and a second electrode over the first surface of the carrier substrate and electrically coupled to the second conductor. An oxide layer may be formed over the first electrode and the second electrode.
