Abstract

Changes transmittance of an optical system used to expose a substrate are determined and used to control an exposure quantity of exposing light that is provided to the substrate. For example, the transmittance is measured before and after exposure of one surface in order to control the exposure quantity that is to be used to expose another surface.
