A film-like temperature sensor for more accurately measuring the
temperatures at plural locations on the surface of a semiconductor wafer
comprises a base film made of an insulating material; plural thin-film
thermal elements for sensing temperature; plural thin-film leads,
connected to the thermal elements; and plural thin-film terminals
connected to the ends of the leads. The thermal elements, leads, and
terminals are integrally formed either on the surface or in the thickness
of the base film. The base film has a flat shape like a paddle, and
comprises a head portion to be attached to the surface of a semiconductor
wafer, and a strip-shaped tail portion extending outwardly of the
semiconductor wafer. The plural thermal elements are arranged on the head
portion in the form of either a concentric circle, spiral, matrix, or
raster, and the plural terminals are arranged on the tail portion.
