Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the aforementioned bipolar electrostatic chuck that narrows the original electrode spacing, the actual voltage that can be applied is limited. Compared with glass substrates used in flat panel displays, there is a problem that sufficient adsorption force (gradient force) cannot be exerted due to the increase in weight per unit area
[0012] On the other hand, when an insulating sample is adsorbed by an electrostatic chuck, even if the voltage applied to the electrode is cut off, there is a problem that it is difficult to remove the sample from the sample adsorption surface of the electrostatic chuck due to

Abstract

A bipolar electrostatic chuck which has excellent dielectric breakdown strength and provides excellent attracting performance. The bipolar electrostatic chuck eliminates difficulty in peeling off a sample from a sample attracting plane as much as possible after application of a voltage to electrodes is finished. The bipolar electrostatic chuck is provided with a first electrode and a second electrode in an insulator and permits a surface of the insulator to be the sample attracting plane. The insulator has the first electrode, an interelectrode insulating layer and the second electrode in this order from the sample attracting plane in the depth direction. The second electrode has a region not overlapping with the first electrode in a normal line direction of the sample attracting plane.
