Abstract
An exposure apparatus includes an exposure beam source for projecting a beam flux for exposure, having a non-uniform intensity distribution, toward a range including an exposure zone, set with respect to a main body of the exposure apparatus; illuminance detectors disposed at least at two points inside the exposure beam flux but outside the exposure zone; and a detecting device for detecting a change in intensity of the exposure beam and a change in relative position of the exposure zone and the exposure beam flux, on the basis of detected illuminances at the two points.
