Double-focus measurement apparatus utilizing chromatic aberration by having first and second bodies illuminated respectively by a single wavelength ray and a ray having a plurality of wavelengths

摘要

A double-focus detector utilizing a lens system having axial chromatic aberration vertically illuminates a mask and a wafer disposed at a minute interval in the direction of the optical axis of the lens system. The mask is illuminated with a single ray of wavelength 500 nm or more and the wafer is illuminated with a given band flux or a plurality of rays of wavelength larger than that selected for the mask and one of focus planes of the lens system is an image forming plane of the single ray and the other focus plane of the lens system is the same image forming plane of the given band ray or the plurality of rays so that the relative position between the mask and the wafer can be detected.
