Abstract

Disclosed herein is a heating plate of a heating device for a semiconductor manufacturing process, including: a metal matrix, which is composed of a Ni—Fe—Co alloy, and in which a heating element is buried; a first ceramic layer formed on one side of the metal matrix; and a second ceramic layer formed on the other side and circumference of the metal matrix. According to the heating plate for a semiconductor manufacturing process of the present invention, even when thermal shock caused by repetition of heating and cooling is applied to the metal matrix composed of a Ni—Fe—Co alloy, the heating plate can exhibit excellent thermal shock resistance because the consistency between the metal matrix and the ceramic layer made of AlN or the like is maintained, and can prevent the metal matrix from being damaged because the ceramic layer has excellent chemical resistance and wear resistance. Therefore, the heating device for a semiconductor manufacturing process, including the heating plate, can stably heat a semiconductor substrate during etching, deposition or the like. Further, this heating device is economically efficient compared to a conventional heating device including a heating plate made of aluminum nitride (AlN) as a major ingredient. Furthermore, this heating device can accomplish excellent temperature uniformity and can rapidly heat a semiconductor substrate to desired temperature in a small amount of electric power, when the ceramic layer is made of a material having high thermal conductivity such as AlN or the like.
