Abstract
An apparatus for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes an out-heater including a heater element formed in an annular shape with a disconnected portion at one place, a first electrode component connected to a first heater electrode part of the heater element, a second electrode component connected to a second heater electrode part of the heater element, and a base including a first groove in which the first electrode component is fixedly disposed, and a second groove in which the second electrode component is movably disposed and a groove width in a circumferential direction of the heater element is formed such that a width of a second gap formed between a side of the second electrode component and an inner wall of the groove is wider than a width of a first gap formed between a side of the first electrode component and an inner wall of the first groove.
