Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an electrostatic chuck located in a processing chamber, and more particularly to an electrostatic chuck covered with a buffer layer for execution The use of an electrostatic chuck reduces the thermal stress and minimizes cracking of the electrostatic chuck due to thermal stress. [Prior Art] In general, a process of a semiconductor device and a planar panel device such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) device includes a deposition process such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and an etching process such as a reactive ion etching process. In the above deposition process and etching process, it is necessary to fix a substrate such as a germanium wafer and a glass panel to an electrode plate in a processing chamber, which can improve process reliability. Electrostatic chucks (ESC) are commonly used to secure substrates to electrode plates in processing chambers. Figure 1 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional electrostatic chuck shown in a processing chamber. Referring to FIG. 1 , a conventional electrostatic chuck 100 includes a body 101 including aluminum, a substrate plate 102 on which a substrate is fixedly disposed, and an electrode 103 disposed in the interior of the substrate plate 102 and produced. An electrostatic force; a terminal 104 for applying a high voltage to the electrode; and an insulating member 105 surrounding the terminal 104. The high voltage is applied to the electrode from the external power source via the terminal 104 201021154

Then, the substrate on the substrate flat plate 102 is taken out toward the base flat plate 102 by electrostatic force, and is fixed to the electrostatic chuck 100. In the conventional deposition process or etching process, the substrate plate 1〇2 is heated by the plasma in the processing chamber, and the substrate plate 1〇2 of the electrostatic chuck 1 is usually due to the plasma in the processing chamber. High temperature and under great thermal stress. More specifically, the thermal system is transferred from the substrate plate 102 to the aluminum body 101' such that the body 101 exhibits thermal expansion in all directions. Since the thermal coefficients of the body 101, the base plate 102, and the insulating member 1〇5 are generally different from each other, thermal stress is applied to the body 1〇1, the base plate 1〇2, and the insulating member 105. In the conventional electrostatic chuck 100, the thermal stress of the upper end portion A of the boundary region where the body 1〇1, the base plate 102 and the insulating member 1〇5 are in contact with each other is maximized. Since the base plate 102 has a strength much smaller than that of the body 1〇1 and the insulating member 105, the thermal stress at the end portion A above the boundary region is greater for the base plate 1〇2 than for the body 101 and the insulating member 1〇5. The influence is large, so that cracks are generated in the lower portion of the base plate 1〇2 near the upper portion A of the boundary region. When the static electricity is lost, the crack system is repeated.

A body having a perforation is prepared and a terminal unit corresponding to one of the perforations is provided. The terminal has a buffer layer for absorbing thermal stress on the surface of the body. The body and the terminal unit may be coupled to each other such that the terminal unit is formed through the base plate to be perforated and protrudes from an upper surface of the body. The upper surface of one of the terminals is exposed, and an electrode is formed on the lower base plate to bring the electrode into contact with the exposed terminal unit. An upper substrate is formed on the lower substrate plate and the electrodes. According to certain embodiments, a method of forming a terminal unit for an electrostatic chuck is provided. A terminal is prepared in such a manner that the terminal penetrates one of the bodies of the electrostatic chuck and is electrically connected to an external power source. This terminal is inserted into an insulator to expose one end portion of the terminal. A buffer layer is formed on the exposed surface of the terminal, and the buffer layer absorbs thermal stress applied by the external environment. In an exemplary embodiment, the buffer layer is formed by moving the insulating raft away from the terminal to expose the end portion of the terminal; and applying a buffer layer to the exposed terminal. The buffer layer may be applied to the terminals by a plasma spray process caused by the atmosphere. After the buffer layer is formed, the chamfering process can be further performed on the buffer layer, whereby one edge portion of the buffer layer is formed into a circular shape. According to certain embodiments, the thermal stress of the ESC may be absorbed into the buffer layer in the ESC, so that the crack caused by the thermal stress may be sufficiently reduced, thereby increasing the durability life of the ESC. In order to make the above description of the present invention more comprehensible, the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. For example, several embodiments of the invention are shown in the drawings. However, the invention may be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the implementation examples set forth herein.

The following description will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. 201021154 .i yy j〇pz.r/\ Fig. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing an electrostatic chuck according to an exemplary embodiment of the concept of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 2, an electrostatic chuck (ESC) 200 according to an exemplary embodiment of the inventive concept may include: a body 2〇1; a substrate plate 202 mounted on the body 201 and including an electrode 2〇3 therein A terminal unit includes a terminal 204 and an insulating member 205 for applying a high voltage from an external power source (not shown) to the electrode 2〇3' and the insulating member 205 surrounding the terminal 204·' and a buffer layer 206, for absorbing the thermal stress of the body 201. A substrate (not shown) to be processed may be fixedly disposed on the substrate plate 202 in the processing chamber, and the buffer layer 206 may be disposed on at least a portion of a boundary region between the body 201 and the substrate plate 202. In an exemplary embodiment, the body 201 may comprise a conductive material such as aluminum&apos; and function as a base support for the ESC 200. A through hole 207 can be formed in the central portion of the body 2〇1, and the terminal unit having the terminal 2〇4 and the insulating member 205 can be inserted into the through hole 207 so as to penetrate the body 201. In an exemplary embodiment, the substrate plate 202 may comprise a dielectric material and may be applied to the body 201 by an atmospheric plasma spray (APS) coating process. The substrate plate 202 can comprise a ceramic material having a dielectric material. Examples of the ceramic material may include alumina (A1203), yttrium oxide (Y203), a composite of alumina (A1203) and yttrium oxide (Y203), cerium oxide (ZrO2), aluminum carbide (A1C), titanium nitride ( Tin), aluminum nitride (A1N), titanium carbide (TiC), oxidized money (MgO), oxidation #§(CaO), cerium oxide (Ce02), titanium oxide (Ti02), carbonized butterfly (BxCy), nitriding township (BN), SiO2 (Si02), carbonized ash (SiC), Jiming Shiquanshi (YAG, 11 201021154 ·♦ » Y3A15012), mullite (aluminum silicate, 3A12〇3.2Si〇3), Fluoride Ming (A1F3) and so on. These can be used alone or in combination. The substrate can be fixed to the substrate flat plate 202 by electrostatic force, and the substrate can be fixedly positioned, and electrostatic force can be generated by electric power applied to the electrode 203 installed in the interior of the base plate 202. The upper surface of the substrate plate 202 may be flat so that the substrate may be placed horizontally on the substrate plate 202. In the present embodiment, the electrode 203 may be disposed substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate plate 202. An insertion portion 208 can be disposed at a central portion of the base plate 202 and can be inserted into the insertion portion 208 with the terminal 204. Terminal 204 is in contact with electrode 203 via insertion portion 208 of substrate plate 202. Therefore, the terminal 204 can be inserted into the body 201 via the through hole 207, and the terminal 2 0 4 can be extended to the electrode 2 0 3 via the insertion portion 2 0 8 of the base plate 2 0 2 . That is, the terminal 204 can be connected to the electrode 203 via the through hole 207 of the body 201 and the insertion portion 208 of the base plate 202. The electrode 203 can be mounted in the base plate 202 as described above, and a high voltage can be applied to the electrode 203 via the terminal 204. Therefore, 10 electrostatic forces can be applied to the substrate on the substrate plate 202, and the substrate can be fixed to the substrate plate 202. That is, the substrate can be fixedly positioned on the substrate plate 202 by electrostatic force. For example, the electrode 203 may comprise a conductive material such as nickel (Ni). In the present embodiment, the electrode 203 can be formed in the substrate plate 202 by a plasma spray (APS) process by continuous atmosphere. First, the lower substrate plate 202a can be formed on the body 201 by a first APS coating process, and an electrode layer (not shown) can be formed by an APS coating process or a screen printing process. On the lower substrate plate 2〇2a. The electrode layer may be formed as an electrode 203 on the lower substrate plate 2〇2a by the patterning process. Then, an upper substrate plate 202b can be formed on the lower substrate plate 202a to a sufficient thickness to cover the electrode 203 by a second ApS coating process. For example, the lower substrate plate 202a can be formed up to about 4 μm to The thickness of about 6 μm may be, and the electrode 203 may have a thickness of about 5 μm to about 65 μm. Further, the upper substrate plate 2 2b may form a thickness of up to about 400 μm to about 750 μm. The terminal 204 can be connected to the electrode 203 via the through hole 207 and the insertion portion 2〇8, and can apply a high voltage to the electrode 203 via an external power source (not shown) via the terminal 2〇4. The terminal 204 may comprise a conductive metal material such as tungsten (w), molybdenum (), and titanium (Ti). In an exemplary embodiment, the insulating member 2〇5 may be interposed between the body 201 and the terminal 204 such that the body 2〇1 and the terminal 2〇4 are electrically insulated from each other. For example, the insulating member 2〇5 may comprise a sintered ceramic material because of the very low porosity in the sintered ceramic material, thereby maximizing the electrical insulation between the body 201 and the terminal 204. For example, the insulating member 205 may have a thickness of about 2, 〇〇〇μηι, and have a surface roughness of from about 0 μm to about 2 μm, which minimizes surface resistance and avoids arcing. In the present example, the insulating member 2〇5 may have a surface roughness of about Ιμη or less. In an exemplary embodiment, the buffer layer 2〇6 may be disposed on a portion of the first boundary region of the body 2〇1 13 201021154 and the insulating member 205 in a second boundary region between the substrate plate 202 and the insulating member 205. And a third boundary region between the substrate plate 202 and the terminal 204. For example, the buffer layer 2〇6 may comprise a ceramic material. Examples of the ceramic material may include alumina (A1203), yttrium oxide (Y203), a composite of alumina (A1203) and yttrium oxide (γ2〇3), zirconium dioxide (Zr〇2), aluminum carbide (A1C), Titanium nitride (tin), aluminum nitride (A1N), titanium carbide (TiC), magnesium oxide (Mg0), calcium oxide (Ca〇), cerium oxide (Ce02), titanium oxide (Ti02), boron carbide (BxCy) Boron nitride (BN), oxidized stone Xi (Si02), carbonized stone (SiC), Jiming stone (yag, Y3A15012), mullite (aluminum silicate, 3A12〇3.2Si〇3), fluorine Aluminum (A1F3) and the like. These can be used alone or in combination. The buffer layer 206 may be formed in the first, second, and third boundary regions by an APS coating process. For example, the buffer layer 206 may have a thickness of from about 1 μm to about 250 μm, more preferably from about 15 μm to about 2 μm. When the buffer layer 206 can have a thickness greater than about 250 μm, the voids are likely to be well produced in the buffer layer 206 'which will cause cracking in the buffer layer 2〇6, although it is less than about ΙΟΟμιη, but the buffer layer 206 It will tend to be so thin that the buffer layer 206 may be difficult to absorb the thermal stress of the body 2〇1. Further, similar to the insulating member 205', the buffer layer 2〇6 may have a surface roughness of about 〇·Ιμηη to about 2 μm, which minimizes surface resistance and avoids arcing. In this example, the buffer layer 206 may have a surface roughness of about ιηη or less. The 201021154 buffer layer 206 can absorb the thermal stress of the electrostatic chuck 200, which may be caused by a temperature rise during a plasma deposition process or a plasma etching process. Although the conventional ESC aluminum body may thermally expand due to the high temperature of the conventional ESC in the plasma process, and various thermal stresses may be applied to the conventional ESC, the thermal expansion of the body of the ESC of the present invention in the same plasma process may be Will be absorbed into the buffer layer 206. Therefore, the thermal stress of the body of the ESC cannot be applied to the insulating member. More specifically, the stress concentration of one of the edge points of the ESC (corresponding to part A of FIG. 1) can be sufficiently avoided by the buffer layer 206, thereby avoiding the boundary between the body 201 of the ESC and the insulating member 205. The crack in the area is used to increase the durability life of the ESC. In this embodiment, the porosity of the buffer layer 206 may be equal to or higher than the porosity of the substrate plate 202, thereby maximizing the absorption of thermal stress and minimizing cracking of the ESC. That is, the porosity of the buffer layer 206 may be equal to or higher than the porosity of the lower substrate plate 202a or the upper substrate plate 202b. For example, the buffer layer 206 can have a porosity of from about 2% to about 10%, more preferably from about 2% to about 7%. When the porosity of the buffer layer 206 may exceed about 10%, the porosity in the buffer layer tends to be excessive, which reduces the strength of the buffer layer 206, and finally separates the buffer layer 206 from the insulating member 205 and the substrate plate 202. . When the porosity is less than about 2%, cracks are easily and rapidly generated, so that it is possible to make the buffer layer 206 difficult to absorb thermal stress. Also, the edge portion of the buffer layer 206 may be formed to be circular or chamfered to move the sharp portion away from the buffer layer 206. When the buffer layer contains the sharp 15 201021154 edge portion, thermal stress may concentrate on the sharp portion, and the crack may rapidly grow from the sharp edge portion of the buffer layer 206. Referring again to Fig. 2, the center thickness A of the lower base plate 202a may be larger than the peripheral thickness B of the lower base plate 2〇2a due to the inclined portion S of the center portion of the ESC 2〇〇. Therefore, the density of the lower substrate plate 202a in the central portion of the ESC 200 may be smaller than the density at the peripheral portion of the Esc 2 inch. However, due to the large thickness of the lower base plate 2%, the current leakage through the aperture of the base plate 202a under the central portion of the ESC 2〇〇 can be sufficiently reduced to avoid between the body 2〇1 and the electrode 203203. Form an arcing. In addition, since the lower base plate 2〇2a can have a large thickness in the central portion of the ESC 200, it is possible to sufficiently prevent the crack from being generated in the first boundary region between the body 2〇1 and the insulating member 205, thereby avoiding the body 2〇1. An arcing is formed with the electrode 203. An adhesive layer (not shown) may be interposed between the body 201 and the lower substrate plate 202' by which the body 2〇1 and the lower substrate plate 202a are firmly fixed to each other. The thermal coefficient of the adhesive layer may vary between the thermal coefficient of the body and the thermal coefficient of the lower substrate flat plate 202a, so that the thermal stress of the body 2〇1 may be absorbed to the adhesive layer' and cannot be applied to the lower substrate flat as a whole. 202a. The adhesive layer may comprise a metal alloy such as a recording alloy. Referring to FIG. 2 again, the lower substrate plate 202a may be formed on the body 201, the terminal 204 and the insulating member 205 in a configuration in which the upper surface of one of the lower substrate plates 202a may be higher than the terminal 204 located at the peripheral portion of the ESC 200. Above the surface. Therefore, the upper substrate plate 202b is at ESC 201021154

Therefore, an arc between the electrode 203 and the substrate disposed on the upper substrate plate 202b can be sufficiently avoided when it is possible to apply a high voltage to the electrode via the terminal 2Q4. Hereinafter, the manufacturing method of the ESC 200 shown in Fig. 2 can be explained in detail.

The terminal unit may include a terminal 204, an insulating member 2〇5, and a buffer layer 2〇6. Terminal 204 can be electrically connected to an external power source when esc 2〇〇 is operated. The insulating member may surround the terminal 204 so that the body 201 and the terminal 2〇4 are electrically insulated from each other. The buffer layer 206 may be formed on a portion of the insulating member 205 and may absorb thermal stress in the ESC 200 to reduce cracking of the ESC 200 due to heat: force. An insulator (not shown) having a predetermined size and shape can be processed, and the terminals 204 can be separately prepared. Terminal 2〇4 can then be inserted into and through the insulator being treated so that the combination of terminal 2〇4 and insulator can be provided in such a configuration that the terminal may be partially enclosed by an insulator. The insulator surrounding the terminal 204 functions as the insulating member 2〇5. Then, a buffer layer 206 may be formed on a portion of the terminal 2〇4. For example, the insulator can be moved away from the end portion of the terminal 2〇4, and the terminal 204 can form a buffer region. At the end portion of the terminal 2〇4, the buffer layer 206 can be formed on the buffer region. Further, the terminal portion 204 and the edge portion of the insulating member 205 may be formed in a circular shape or chamfered.
