Abstract
An exposure apparatus for printing a pattern of a mask to a wafer includes a mask moving mechanism for moving the mask; a wafer moving mechanism or moving the wafer along a predetermined movement coordinate; a measuring system for measuring an error with respect to the movement coordinate, resulting from the movement of the mask by the mask moving mechanism; and a memorizing device for memorizing a data table prepared on the basis of the error measured by the measuring system; wherein the wafer moving mechanism uses the data in the data table when it moves the wafer for positioning of the wafer with respect to the mask.
