Abstract: Electrostatic chucks and methods of forming electrostatic chucks are disclosed. Exemplary electrostatic chucks include a ceramic body, a device embedded within the ceramic body, and an interface layer formed overlying the device. Exemplary methods include providing ceramic precursor material within a mold, providing a device, coating the device with an interface material to form a coated device, placing the coated device on or within the ceramic precursor material, and sintering the ceramic precursor material to form the electrostatic chuck and an interface layer between the device and ceramic material formed during the step of sintering.

Abstract: A substrate handling chamber body is formed from a castable aluminum alloy including a manganese (Mn) constituent and an iron (Fe) constituent. The castable aluminum alloy has a manganese (Mn) constituent-to-iron (Fe) constituent ratio that between about 1.125 and about 1.525 to limit microporosity and shrinkage porosity within the castable aluminum alloy forming the substrate handling chamber body. Semiconductor processing systems and methods of making substrate handling chamber bodies for semiconductor processing systems are also described.

Abstract: A substrate support structure includes a substrate support structure body formed from a ceramic composite and having a first surface, a second surface spaced apart from the first surface, and a periphery spanning the first surface and the second surface of the substrate support structure body. The first surface, the second surface, and the periphery of the substrate support structure body are defined by the ceramic composite. The ceramic composite includes two or more of a (a) an aluminum nitride (AlN) constituent, (b) an aluminum oxynitride (Al2.81O3.56N0.44, AlON) constituent, (c) an alpha-alumina (α-Al2O3) constituent, (d) a yttrium alumina garnet (Y3Al5O12, YAG) constituent, (e) a yttrium alumina monoclinic (Y4Al2O9, YAM) constituent, (f) a yttrium alumina perovskite (YAlO3, YAP) constituent, and (g) a yttrium oxide (Y2O3) constituent.
