A system is provided for processing a semiconductor wafer. The wafer is pre-aligned at a first workstation. The pre-alignment may be accomplished by an edge sensor. Alignment mark portions of the wafer are exposed at the same workstation. A fiber optic bundle may be used to expose the alignment mark portions. A high degree of accuracy is not needed to expose the alignment mark portions. The accuracy achieved by the pre-alignment mechanism and the fiber optic bundle is sufficient. The invention saves processing time at a subsequent stepper or scanner exposure workstation.
