ABSTRACT:
An exposure apparatus comprises an illumination optical system for irradiating an illuminating light onto a mask having a plurality of patterns for which pattern forming conditions differ from one another, and a projection optical system for projecting images of said plurality of patterns onto a photosensitive substrate, a device for compensating imaging errors of pattern images to be projected onto said substrate, and a control system for controlling the operation of said compensating device in accordance with imaging errors of said plurality of pattern images so that said plurality of pattern images may be projected in specified imaging characteristics.
