Abstract
An electrostatic chuck includes a ceramic plate through holes which penetrate the plate, and a pair of positive and negative electrodes. The plate has division areas virtually divided, which are equal in number to the number of the through holes. The positive electrode and the negative electrode have pairs of positive and negative helical electrode portions, and for each of the division areas, one of the pairs is provided in parallel so as to cover the entirety of the division area from each of a positive electrode start point and a negative electrode start point which are close to one of the through holes. The positive electrode is such that the positive helical electrode portions are connected via outer circumferential portions of the plate, and the negative electrode is such that the negative helical electrode portions are connected via a central portion of the plate.
