Abstract

A conductive polymeric layer on an electrostatic chuck. The conductive polymeric layer comprises a conductive polymer and a photosensitive polymer. The conductivity of the conductive polymer promotes charge dissipation by the conductive polymeric layer, while the photosensitivity of the photosensitive polymer allows the surface of the conductive polymeric layer to be photopatterned. The extent to which the conductive polymeric layer is conductive and photosensitive may be modulated by varying the relative amounts of the conductive polymer and the photosensitive polymer.
