Abstract
A back surface potential lead-out portion has one end portion disposed in a side of a back surface of a semiconductor wafer held by a semiconductor wafer holding portion and the other end portion disposed in a side of a front surface of the semiconductor wafer held by the semiconductor wafer holding portion. The semiconductor wafer and the semiconductor wafer holding portion that holds the semiconductor wafer are movable in an in-plane direction of the semiconductor wafer. In a case where the semiconductor wafer and the semiconductor wafer holding portion that holds the semiconductor wafer are moved in the in-plane direction, a portion of the back surface potential lead-out portion located in the in-plane direction from the semiconductor wafer is fixed close to the outside of a movement region of the semiconductor wafer.
