Alignment correction method for substrate to be exposed, and exposure apparatus

摘要

An alignment correction method includes: the step of detecting coordinates of a first observation point 14 and a second observation point 15 set in advance on a substrate to be exposed 1 that is being scanned in a scanning direction A, in order to observe an alignment deviation of the substrate to be exposed 1; the step of computing a correction amount based on a deviation between the detected coordinates and a reference line set in advance according to the first observation point 14 and the second observation point 15; and the step of correcting alignment of a subsequent substrate to be exposed 1 based on the computed correction amount.

1. An alignment correction method for a substrate to be exposed, which corrects alignment of a subsequent substrate to be exposed based on an alignment deviation of a previously exposed substrate to be exposed, in a process of exposing successively substrates to be exposed that are being scanned in a scanning direction by a scanning device,
the method comprising the steps of: detecting coordinates of a first observation point and a second observation point set in advance on a substrate to be exposed that is being scanned in the scanning direction, so as to observe an alignment deviation of the substrate to be exposed; computing a correction amount based on a deviation between the detected coordinates and a reference line set in advance according to the first observation point and the second observation point; and correcting alignment of a subsequent substrate to be exposed based on the computed correction amount.
