Abstract: Provided are a method of manufacturing a ring-shaped member and the ring-shaped member. A method of manufacturing a ring-shaped member to be placed in a process chamber of a substrate processing apparatus includes arranging one silicon member and another silicon member to cause one abutting surface of the one silicon member and another abutting surface of the other silicon member to abut on each other, heating the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface through optical heating to melt silicon on a surface of the one abutting surface and silicon on a surface of the other abutting surface such that silicon melt is caused to flow into a gap between the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface, and cooling the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface to crystallize the silicon melt forming a silicon adhesion part.

Abstract: Provided is a protective material ring in which a plurality of silicon members are joined. A protective material ring is to be installed in a treatment chamber of a substrate treatment apparatus performing plasma treatment on a substrate, and the substrate is accommodated in the treatment chamber. The protective material ring includes: three or more silicon members; and a joining part joining the silicon members. The joining part contains boron oxide.

Abstract: A ring for an electrode includes three or more silicon members having an arc shape and a joining part joining the silicon members. The joining part contains boron oxide. A clean copy of the amended abstract is provided in Exhibit A of this preliminary amendment.

Abstract: Provided is a ring for an electrode in which a plurality of silicon members is joined. The ring for the electrode includes a plurality of first silicon members abutted in one direction, an embedded silicon member that is embedded at a position across the plurality of first silicon members abutted, and a joining part joining the plurality of first silicon members and the embedded silicon member, the joining part provided between the plurality of first silicon members and the embedded silicon member.

Abstract: Provided are a method of manufacturing a ring-shaped member and the ring-shaped member. A method of manufacturing a ring-shaped member to be placed in a process chamber of a substrate processing apparatus includes arranging one silicon member and another silicon member to cause one abutting surface of the one silicon member and another abutting surface of the other silicon member to abut on each other, heating the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface through optical heating to melt silicon on a surface of the one abutting surface and silicon on a surface of the other abutting surface such that silicon melt is caused to flow into a gap between the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface, and cooling the one abutting surface and the other abutting surface to crystallize the silicon melt forming a silicon adhesion part.

Abstract: An electrode plate includes: a plurality of plate-like electrode members; and a joining part joining the electrode members to each other in a thickness direction. The joining part has a heat resistance to withstand a temperature of at least 150° C., melts at 700° C. or below.

Abstract: A ring-shaped electrode includes a silicon ring body, and a cover body joined to at least a part of a surface of the ring body via a joining part, and having a better plasma resistance than silicon. The joining part has a heat resistance to withstand a temperature of at least 150° C., melts at 700° C. or below, and contains boron oxide.
