Abstract

See full text

Proposed is a ceramic-made electrostatic chuck consisting of two insulating ceramic layers and a metallic electrode layer integrally sandwiched between the two insulating layers, which has a very quick response characteristic to turning-on and -off of the electric voltage applied to the electrodes without affecting the very high electrostatic attracting force. This improvement can be obtained by forming the insulating ceramic layers from a specific ceramic material consisting of a highly resistive ceramic material such as alumina and the like and titanium nitride admixed with the former in an amount not exceeding 5% by weight but sufficient to impart the insulating ceramic layers with a volume resistivity in the range from 1.times.10.sup.8 to 1.times.10.sup.13 ohm.cm at 20.degree. C.
