Ceramic heater
A ceramic heater includes a ceramic plate. The ceramic plate has a wafer placement surface and has an inner-peripheral-side zone that has a circular shape and an outer-peripheral-side zone that has an annular shape. An inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element that has a two-dimensional shape is disposed in the inner-peripheral-side zone. An outer-peripheral-side is resistance heating element that has a coil shape is disposed in the outer-peripheral-side zone. A terminal of inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and a terminal of the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element are disposed in the inner-peripheral-side.
1. A ceramic heater comprising:
a ceramic plate that has a wafer placement surface and that has an inner-peripheral-side zone that has a circular shape and an outer-peripheral-side zone that has an annular shape;
an inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element that is disposed in the inner-peripheral-side zone and that has a two-dimensional shape and at least two terminals; and
an outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element that is disposed in the outer-peripheral-side zone and that has a coil shape and t least two terminals,
wherein at least two terminals of the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and at least two terminals of the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element are disposed in the inner-peripheral-side zone, and
wherein the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element is wired over an entirety of the inner-peripheral-side zone via a space between the at least two terminals of the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and the at least two terminals of the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element, and
wherein the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element extends from the at least two terminals of the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and passes through spaces between the at least two terminals of the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and the at least two terminals of the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element.
2. The ceramic heater according to claim 1 ,
wherein an area of the inner-peripheral-side zone is smaller than an area of the outer-peripheral-side zone.
3. The ceramic heater according to claim 1 ,
wherein the inner-peripheral-side resistance heating element and the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element are disposed on the same plane parallel with the wafer placement surface in the ceramic plate.
4. The ceramic heater according to claim 1 ,
wherein the inner-peripheral-side zone is a single zone, and
wherein the outer-peripheral-side zone is divided into two or more zones, and the outer-peripheral-side resistance heating element is separately wired for every zone.
