Abstract

A substrate placing table, which is installed inside a processing container for processing a wafer, includes: a stage configured to place a water on an upper surface thereof and including an inner peripheral flow channel and an outer peripheral flow channel formed therein to circulate a heat medium of a predetermined temperature therethrough; a support table configured to support the stage; and a temperature adjusting plate installed between the stage and the support table, and including a temperature adjusting mechanism configured to adjust a temperature of a heat radiation portion at which heat is radiated between the stage and the support table.

Claims (8)

1. A substrate placing table for placing a substrate thereon, comprising;

a stage configured to place the substrate on an upper surface thereof, and including a heat medium flow channel formed therein to circulate a heat medium of a predetermined temperature therethrough;

a support table configured to support the stage; and

a temperature adjusting plate installed between the stage and the support table, and including a temperature adjusting mechanism configured to adjust a temperature of a heat radiation portion at which heat is radiated between the stage and the support table and configured to be another heat medium flow channel through which the heat medium circulates;

a stage heat medium supply pipe connected to the heat medium flow channel of the stage to supply the heat medium to the heat medium flow channel; and

an adjusting plate heat medium supply pipe configured to connect between the heat medium flow channel and the another heat medium flow channel of the temperature adjusting plate, and configured to supply, to the another heat medium flow channel, the heat medium which has been supplied from the stage heat medium supply pipe and subsequently, passed through the heat medium flow channel.

2. The substrate placing table according to claim 1 , wherein the stage and the temperature adjusting plate are fixed to each other by a plurality of fixing members configured to fix an outer peripheral portion of the stage and an outer peripheral portion of the temperature adjusting plate to each other, and

wherein a gap is formed between the stage and the temperature adjusting plate in an area inward of the plurality of fixing members.
