Abstract

The unevennesses of a chuck are measured at various positions and are stored, as discrepancies from an idealized plane, in a databank. The measured discrepancies are used to calculate corrections for the predetermined settings for the focus distance and/or the tilt of the chuck. These corrections are in each case used differently for adjusting the respective exposure of the exposure areas.
