Abstract

Embodiments of substrate supports with a heater are provided herein. In some embodiments, a substrate support may include a first member to distribute heat to a substrate when present above a first planar surface of the first member, a second member disposed beneath the first member, the second member including a plurality of resistive heating elements, wherein the plurality of resistive heating elements provide local temperature compensation to the first member to heat the substrate when present, a third member disposed beneath the second member, the third member including one or more base heating zones to provide a base temperature profile to the first member, and a fourth member disposed beneath the third member, the fourth member including a first set of electrical conductors coupled to each of the resistive heating elements.
