ABSTRACT:
A susceptor24includes a heater38disposed in a planar state, upper and lower ceramic-metal composites40A and40B disposed so as to sandwich the heater38from above and from below, and a ceramic electrostatic chuck28for attracting and holding an object to be treated, W. The electrostatic chuck is joined to an upper surface of the upper ceramic-metal composite40A. The electrostatic chuck28has nearly the same coefficient of linear thermal expansion as that of the upper ceramic-metal composite40A. Thus, peeling or cracking of the electrostatic chuck28due to the difference in thermal expansion and contraction between the electrostatic chuck28and the upper ceramic-metal composite40A can be prevented.
