ABSTRACT:
A substrate of an electrostatic chuck, which is a member for use in a semiconductor manufacturing apparatus, is formed of an yttrium oxide material that contains yttrium oxide (Y2O3), silicon carbide (SiC), and a compound that contains a rare-earth element (RE), Si, O, and N. The yttrium oxide material contains RE8Si4N4O14as a compound that contains a rare-earth element (RE), Si, O, and N, wherein RE may be La or Y. Y8Si4N4O14is produced during a sintering step of a raw material that contains the main component Y2O3and an accessory component Si3N4. Y8Si4N4O14and SiC in the yttrium oxide material improve mechanical strength and volume resistivity.
