摘要:An error in alignment between both positions is obtained from referenceposition information incorporated in advance in an exposure apparatus for manufacturinga semiconductor and detection position information obtained by physically non-contactmeasuring a mark formed on an object to be measured such as a wafer, a mask or a waferstage. This mark has a construction having a periodic pattern at a predetermined pitch inconnection with a scanning direction. A periodic signal obtained by non-contact scanningthe mark is subjected to Fourier integration processing and a phase angle including notonly a fundamental wave component but a high-order component by calculation of a sinewave and a cosine component of Fourier conversion to thereby detect positioninformation of an average center position of the mark with a correction of a markdeformation caused by wafer or process of mask added thereto. An error in alignment iscorrected by relatively moving said object to a reference position.
